I’ve been using “Rotella-T 15w-40” (non synthetic) in my 2005 Honda Shadow Spirit VT1100C since I bought it used in 2006. It’s a fine oil.

Pros: fine oil

Vehicle: Honda

I have maybe 60k miles on rotella t6 in various liquid cooled metric bikes. It meets the standards that yamaha requires and is way more available than yamalube.

Pros: meets yamaha standards

Mileage: 96560 km

I use rotella 5-40 in mine. It's really cheap for a full synthetic and I saw less oil consumption after switching. It's intended for diesel engines but I haven't seen any negative effects after using it for 60k miles. I usually change it around 4k miles.

Pros: less oil consumption

Cons: diesel engine intended

Vehicle: Subaru Forester

Mileage: 96560 km
