What oil would YOU run in this engine?
Manual specifies fully synthetic:
“SAE 5W-40; JASO MA, MA2; API SL; ACEA A3”
I’m surprised that they specify the JASO MA/MA2 rather than MB as this not a wet clutch.
Wouldn’t a JASO MB oil be a lower friction and “better“ oil in this engine?
An example of an oil that meets the spec is the Castrol Power1 4T JASO MA2, API SL
Aside from the 10W vs 5W, why wouldn’t something like the JASO MB, API SN below be as good or better?
MOTUL SCOOTER POWER 10W-30 MB 4T
100% SYNTHETIC
API SN/SM/SL/SJ
JASO MB - M033MOT170
Why is a JASO MB oil not specified?
What am I missing? Can somebody help me understand?
