I see the minimum rating requirements on the sticker of my Roketa DB-05 are met by Castrol 15-40 car oil?, but on the other hand, I do see that some guys are getting much cooler running bikes using 4 stroke motorcycle oil, but why? Basically what is different and what would it hurt to run the Castrol 15w-40 in my bike? That's what I have in it right now, but it only has 60 miles on that oil and it was done 3-4 miles at a time, then shut off. I never got the bike hot even. Thanks
