All of my bikes and quads drink Rotella 15W40, but only because I got it on sale. I'd use any brand of 15W40 diesel.
Interesting. The oil I drained seemed really thin. Shrugged it off
And this oil seemed abnormally thin to me for 20w50 coming out the bottle. But I've never used a motorcycle spacific oil before.

I'm going to run this oil for now anyways as it's done now.

Ok so here goes another dumb question lol
Why diesel oil ?

Thanks
