A little update: just found some topic discussing use of oil and found this post:
I am using Motul 5100 with API Standards: API SG/SH/SJ/SL/SM (http://www.motul.com/gb/en/products/oils...t-15w50--2) is it possible that caused problems in the first place?

As far as I know all the genuine motorcycle oil on sale in the UK is manufactured to obsolete API automotive standards.
Feel free to fill your bike with the latest super high tech API SM, but you might not feel so great once you find your clutch is wrecked and you need to get your bores honed and new rings fitted.
