Did some research, and found out that the T6 15-W40 oil has all the necessary certifications to be used in a motorcycle, even with a wet clutch. This oil is a quarter as expensive as the Castrol or Motul oils I was running before, and at least around 2k miles in, it seems to run just as well.

Have been running T-6 5W40 since 2011. Never had an issue getting the oil. Now I have had my first oil change in my 6.7 PSD and had to use Mobil Diesel oil. 5,000 miles in and can hear a difference in the sound of the engine. So, shell when I get my oil sample back will you still honor your engine warrant since I was not able to get your oil ? Yes seriously I miss your oil and hurry the heck up and get t-6 to us!!

I've been using shell rotella t6 5w40 for about a year now and this oil is awesome! Run it in my 1994 jeep grand Cherokee 4.0l and my 1991 Volvo 740 turbo and the engines love it they run alot smoother and quieter and shell rotella t6 5w40 is my first choice for my vehicles for the protection of the internal parts of my engines and to keep them running strong and running long!

I've been putting the T-6, 5/40 in my '09 Yamaha 1900cc air cooled Raider for about 6 years now as a winter weight oil. It starts a lot better than with the 20/50 and it's been running great for years with absolutely no oil burning. Bike has 50,000 miles on it now. Great friggin' product. Love it.
