I'm a new member... and I have to admit to being completely lost with a lot of the terminology used on the site.
I don't know much about oil. I registered so I can learn more about engine oil(s), with motorcycle engines being the focus of my search for knowledge.
I can tell you what I use. You'll have to figure out if the technical basis supports my choices and use.
I've run (either) Rotella T 15-40 or Delo LE 15-40 in my motorcycles for close to 5 years, with no concerns. I change oil and filter about every 3000-3500 miles. I recently have started using the Delo 400 LE in my 1984 GL 1200. With only 800 miles on it, there's little I can offer you in the way of experience. There does not see to me any difference between the Rotella and Delo as far as how the engine sounds, transmission shifts, or in engine operating temperature.
I ride 12 months a year, as long as there is no ice on the road surface, and will often put 1000 miles a month, or more on my motorcycles.
The only time I have shortened the OCI is when I had a leaking carb float, which allowed raw gas into the crankcase of a Virago I owned (my stupidity).
I have considered using many other types and brands of oil in my motorcycles, but all the reading and discussions I've had with other riders has always brought me back to the Rotella, Delo or Delvac oil(s). I read that the WalMart store brand oil in the same class is similar when compared to the Rotella (From the PQIA web site testing data). I *may* try some of that oil, but I don't know if I will. I'm pretty happy with what I'm using, and probably won't change a thing in spite of the reading I've done on the subject.
It seems to me that the oil(s) we choose for our engines are as personal as Ford or Chevrolet... you make an informed decision and the rest is personal preference.
