I WOULD NOT BE RUNNING ANY TRUCK OIL IN MY BIKE! I RUN AMS OIL AND WOULD SUGEST IT TO ANYONE.
from experience do not run and synthetic oil in your bike if you have large tires. it will make the clutch glaze up. your best thing to run in honda hn4 it only cost $4.00 and works great.
Shell Rotella T 15W-40 is a great oil for atv and motorcycles. It has had a proven track record for years in the motorcycle community. Most of the lubrication requirements for heavy diesel engines apply to motorcycles as well.
A few links if your interested:
