Its fine if you use motorcycle specific, just be careful of using car based mineral / semi-synthetic / fully synthetic with a wet clutch because it might contain MOLY which can impregnate the clutch material and cause slipping - dry clutch bikes shouldn't be affected by the nature of their design....

I don't think it is as the labelling says API SL. SL grade I believe is not designed for M/C's

To be on the safe side, I would say that wet clutches can benefit from a specifically manufactured oil that mentions wet clutches in the manufacturers spec. Unfortunately You don't mention the type of machine, but again looking at Castrol Moto will shed a lot of light. Start at the beginning with the videos and work through it, You will soon be Your own expert on oils!!

The specified API rating for this oil is SL, so infact it exceeds the ratings mentioned.

Question

Is this suitable for me?

Hi,

Is this suitable for a 650 Bandit (GSF-650SA-K7)

Or should I look at the 5/40 or something altogether different?

Halfords Motorcycle Engine Oil Part Synthetic 10W/40 would be
suitable for your Suzuki Bandit 650. The manufacturer does not appear to
recommend a 5W/40 as a suitable alternative in this case.

Question

Hi, do you have plans to stock fully synthetic 10W/50 motorcycle oil?

Many modern motorcycles specify a 10W/50 oil. All KTMs for example and many BMWs. I really liike Halfords oil, but cannot see any Halfords branded or Castrol branded oils of this viscosity stocked which I find suprising.

They (Castrol) do not seem to sell that grade. Please see The Castrol Moto site.
The terms and conditions do no allow url's but entering Castro Moto should bring it up

There are no plans currently to stock this grade of oil, however I do have the suppliers looking into this to see if it’s a viable option for us.

Yes as most bike engines in the last 20-25 years have some form of alloy in their construction..

It shouldn't be any problems with aluminium specifically but you should ensure that it meets all the appropriate specifications for the vehicle before fitting the product.
