So, I go to check my oil and it's low. I've been riding the same oil for just about 4K miles so I figure I'll just change it.
The Owners Manual says use 10W30 API SJ oil. I can't find that in any store. I haven't gone to the dealer yet, because I was hoping I could get the Motorcycle oil somewhere else and save a buck or two. I went to Autozone, Advanced Auto, Pep Boys, and Walmart. The only motorcycle oil I saw was 10W40 and 20W50. The 10W40 says it "exceeds API SG/SH/SJ". Not sure if that's okay or not.
I figure I could order the 10W30, but after the shipping I probably wouldn't save anything. Is the dealer my only off the shelf option?
