Their is another choice for Oil. I found Mobil 1 for motorcycles in quarts at 
the auto store. It comes in 20w-50 and unlike the mobil1 for autos it is 
missing the  SJ rating. This is what is supposed to cause the clutch 
problems. Unfortunately it is almost as expensive around  $ 7.00 . Nice to 
have around when you need to add some oil or on a trip.  I think it may have 
said something about Twin cylinders I think they were targeting the Harley 
Bunch.
