    Default auto oil vs motorcycle oil

    Have some extra bottles of oil from truck I just sold which is the same basic stuff as for the bike: 10w-40

    Internet seems conflicted on if auto oil =/= motorcycle oil. Some things I've found say dedicated motorcycle oil is needed and others say that claim is snake oil and one can use regular engine oil in a bike.

    eta: I should clarify this is a wet clutch bike in case that changes answers due to friction issues and slipping.

    Any thoughts?
