I had some UOA's done on one bike, the bored, stroked, high compression Hayabusa. It's producing 125 RWHP more than stock. No issues. On the two S1000RRs, and Panigale V4 Speciale, I haven't done UOAs, but I change the oil annually (the '20 S1000RR M isn't yet a year old) on all of them. That usually works out to about every 3k per bike, no degradation in shift quality. All bikes are equipped with AkrapoviÄ Evolution full Ti exhaust systems.
The 'Busa is the oldest bike, and it's the one I experimented with trying so many different oils. The HDEO's like Rotella just didn't retain shift quality for very long. The Motul 300V 4T just seems to let the bike run it's best. Better than Amsoil, Redline, Mobil 1, Silkolene, Golden Spectro, Maxima, Ipone, Shell, Repsol, the list goes on.
At any rate, it's just my opinion based on my own experience.
