Hey All
I see people are saying bike oil is better than car oil. I found this article from MCN on the ducati mechannica website that may (or may not) be of interest
http://www.ducatimeccanica.com/oil.html
TL:DR ... MCN "can find no substantive evidence that using a high-quality, name-brand automotive oil in an average street motorcycle is in any way harmful or less effective in providing proper lubrication and protection than using the more expensive, motorcycle-specific oils."
Hope this helps
