I do not know if that is the case, but I have been using 15w-50 Mobil 1 in my
Honda XR440R for 3 years of punishing, clutch abusing, dirt riding. Also my motor is quite modified for more HP.  To this date I have never had any problems, eng., clutch or otherwise. My bike runs perfect and looks brand new inside!

My ST gets the same treatment :-) ( oil that is )
