[QUOTE="#Rocket, post: 1460459, member: 98498"] Thanks for your response WBill. I have used T6 (or T4) in all my farm equipment and recreational equipment for years. But this is the first time I have ran T6 in a bike with a catalytic converter and O2 sensor. I started my new-to-me (with 25k miles) 2006 FJR on T6 a couple thousand miles ago and it works well. But I noticed recently in the FJR manual and on another forum some concerning experiences about the FJR specifying motorcycle oil that meets API SE, SF, SG or higher spec. Compound this with a neighbor who was running Rotella in a not-so-old gas pickup who had to replace cats and four O2 sensors due to fouling--the dealer blamed it on T6 (the truck failed on a cat efficiency code, among other things).
