Default ELF or Motul oil

Hi all, sorry if been said before.

I'm wanting to hear on thoughts from anyone used / using ELF or Motul engine oil?

Out of interest does anyone still hear of issues with using full syn oils?

Agreed. Motul 4100 15w50 semi syn in my BF XR6. Engine revs more freely and better fuel economy than the fully synthetic Nulon 10w40. The instantaneous fuel consumption when cruising on a highway was around 1L/100km lower over a same stretch of road (Princes Hwy Melbourne to Warrnambool).
