I've been using Rotella T6 full synthetic in all my bikes for many years. I checked the most recent bottle I have and it still states JASO MA. If that changes, I may switch to the GN4 10w30.
Igofar might be talking about Rotella t5 which has 65ppm of moly you can see the additives here https://pqia.org/heavy-duty-diesel-engine-oil/ snoop around this site, many car oils are listed also
No apparently it’s T6.
I can’t see from the pictures, but do either of those have the gasoline rating on them?
It will start with an S.
And to clarify a point, the new version of rotella without the gas rating, didn’t appear to cause clutch issues, it did on three bikes that I know of at this time.
Some needed new plates, the others just a change to a different brand solve these issues.
And to be clear I never stated it was because of moly, there are a lot of things in the oils that may have caused issues.

That’s what Shell says anyway. But they fail to certify it. So no JASO MA labeling.
