the oil is 15w40 and that should be what it calls for yes it is for diesels never fear shell rotella is approved for wet clutchs and i have the e-mail from a shell engineer to prove it, even spoke with him on the phone also the syn.rotella is approved. its really what you feel comfortable with i use rotella without problems

After 3150 mi on my 2005 Roketa 200-RSM enduro I finally have all the kinks worked out. you will have your share of the same cheap stuff breaking or falling off/ loose parts as i did. Over all its a good bike for the money with a strong little engine that wont give up.
