Default Rotella, Still Using it?

Hi folks,
I switched to Rotella Synthetic when my m50 had 600 miles on it. Now a half dozen oil changes later, I want to see if those who use or used this oil are still pleased and confident that it is a good product for our bikes.
Waddya think?
PS: How many miles do you go before changes?

Thanks,
Dave

I have been using Rotella T synthetic since my 600 change and with 3600 miles on my bike I am still pleased. It has been night and day difference from the reg crude oil that was in there to the synthetic.
I have done 3 oil changes as I change it every 6 months due to the extreme weather differences that we have up in the Norh East.

Thumbs up Still going strong.

I switched to Rotella T at about 3,000 miles I think. I now have 22,000 miles and I am very satisfied,I try to change it around every 3,000 but it has been more like 4,000 between changes. I'll continue to use it.
