Not in an air cooled motorcycle engine.

Hey! An oil post! And it's already adversarial.

Why?

Because nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.

I wouldn't use any 5W-XX in any air-cooled engine.

And besides that, the Arabs wouldn't like it.

I agree with Bill and Larry. Way too warm in Florida for 5W-??. Rotella is a good oil; I run it in my F-350, but not in my air cooled Bonnie.
