my 07 r6 doesn't like motul..or ita has a problem?

hello. after 1000 km with my new r6 my dealer changed the oil ( yamalube 20w40 or 50) and at 6000 km I changed my oil ( motul 15w50 300v) and also the oil filter . the level was betwen max and min level.
After 1000 km, i was driving very fast and the oil lamp on the dash board turned on. I had cut the acceleration and i drived slowly until I arrived home and put another 200ml oil in the engine .

after few ridings ( about 1500km), same problem ......the oil lamp turns on at top speed....

What it is going on????

the oil is slightly low.
and read your owners manual. it's normal to see it flash on going up hills or accelerating.
that's why I keep mine closer to the max. it doesn't come on.
