I'm a little slow but I just found out that Rotella T6 5-40 synthetic is JASO MA compatible. Safe for Motorcycles with wet clutches!! WOO-HOO!! Rotella T6 is one of the best oils made and it's low cost. Changed my Rincon and KLX oil today. I was gonna purchase the Honda oil for both until I read that Rotella T6 is JASO MA compatible. Others may not care but for me this is great. This is the only oil I use in my Kubota and daughters Jeep. I don't use it in my Toyota's since it has a higher ash content that is not optimal for catalytic converters. I really don't wanna use it in 40 to 50mpg cars. Rotella is known for very low wear and many long haul rig owners swear by it. Anyway -- Quality $20 gallon oil for motorcycles and ATV's rocks. My ST1300 will get Rotella T6 also in the next few months. Guess I should have asked Bob so I would have known earlier -- www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1697351Lol -- that Bob is not Bob T but it is funny to me.

Been using rotella in my equipment and diesel truck for years. Good stuff. Switched over to t6 a few years ago on the grizzly after reading about all the Yamaha guys swearing by it on the grizzly central forum. Got a new toy at the house and did a T6 oil change today. Only using 2 gts.gets a couple of changes out of a $21 gallon. Kb

Knowing the nature of this "crowd". I don't know if my skin is thick enough to tell.
Just the utterance of the word will start a hecking only Second to the still shameful Barney Lake trail discussion.
Its just kinna like getting a new tatto on your forehead......its gotta grow on you.

Honda Big Red. That is my bet. Or the new Yamaha SxS. Then again maybe a CanAm Spyder.
One of those three it's got to be!

Rotella T 15w-40 is all I ran in my prairie for years. Its had the Jaso MA rating for quite a while now. The kawi twins seemed to prefer the dino as opposed to the synthetic T6.
