Many people I know run Rotella synthetic in their race motorcycles and report great results.
Yes the oil is probably robust for the shared gears in the transmission, but my concern is possibly oil foaming.

These engines turn up to 16,000 rpm for extended periods on the track. How does the diesel oil cope with foaming?
 
I know that rotella and Delo are both fortified with anti foam agents for use in trucks with HEUI injection.

The HEUI system uses high pressure engine oil 2,300+psi to fire the fuel injector. this creates upwards of 30,000 PSI of fuel pressure at the injector tips
 
i use Rotella in both my 450 bike and quad. Tese spin at 11k or extended periods.

Ive never noticed any issues and the oil looked fine when dropping it hot
