that is a great site,this was very interesting,it has come up a lot on this forum.
One of the myths surrounding synthetic oils is that new engines require a break-in period with conventional oil. The fact is, current engine manufacturing technology does not require this break-in period. As indicated by the decisions of the engineers who design the high-performance bikes listed above, Mobil 1 can be used starting the day you drive the bike off the showroom floor.
Myth: You should break in your engine with conventional oil, then switch to a synthetic oil like Mobil 1.
Reality:
You can start using Mobil 1? in new vehicles at any time, even in brand new vehicles. In fact, Mobil 1 is original equipment (it is installed at the factory) in:
triumph
from what i can gather on this site the oil you mention,will be perfect for your tiger.it looks like thay have just changed the name,and maybe dropped the vicosity slightly.
MX4T is a 10w40 and the old mobil 1 oil that triumph recomend in there handbook is 15w40.
there is no refeence to mobil racing 4T so i would say its the same stuff,ring mobil if your not sure,or ring triumph they are very helpfull (i have rung a few times)
