Default Brake Fluid Help

I've done a search, and didn't really turn up anything - other than it looks like Motul 600 is the brake fluid of choice here.

I'm up for my 30,000 mile service and I am thinking of changing my brake fluid from the OEM Honda to the Motul 600 at that time. The car is a daily driver, lots of auto-x, and some track days are in the plans..

My questions are:
1. Are there any disadvantages to changing to the Motol 600 fluid for daily driving? Does it have to be bled often?
2. Is it worth it for what I use my R for?
3. Will I ever notice a difference from the OEM fluid?

thanks.

It costs more than OEM fluid. The cost isn't huge - about $12 for a half-liter bottle, and you need two - but that's more than OEM.

Does it have to be bled often?
No.

2. Is it worth it for what I use my R for?
If you're never going to take your car on the track, and you're never going to drive it really hard on the street, then no. Otherwise yes.

3. Will I ever notice a difference from the OEM fluid?
See number 2.
