Also, if you review the oil requirements for the EX, the oil's "hot" number is supposed to be either 40W or 50W to properly protect the engine at its full operating temp. With Rotella's 40W "hot" weight, you won't be sacrificing its ability to protect the engine when it is fully warmed up.

You've probably had friends tell you that you have to run motorcycle-specific oil in your bike. Riders usually use these oils because they are worried that non-moto oil will be detrimental to their wet clutch.

What they are really worried about is oil that is labeled Energy Conserving. Energy conserving EC oils are made to be more slippery than conventional oils, which may cause the clutch to slip on some motorcycles. If you put EC oil in your bike and do feel clutch slippage, just change the oil to non-EC; that should make the problem go away.

Note that newer EC oils are labeled 'resource conserving'. There is an ongoing discussion on this board concerning this subject.
