For those, like me, wanting JASO MA bike oil, this oil offers the EXACT same specs as the 4ltr motorcycle oil that retails for $100.
On sale till the 4th Feb. I believe this is the same as the Vantage full synthetic offered elsewhere, different labels to avoid price matches.

wow thanks did not know its the same as the motorcycle one
I checked the specs on the Penrite site. Looks like same oil in different bottle to me.
I bought it as well under the same expectation… found a few confusing forum threads on my bike and using full v semi synthetic but hopefully the Yam CP2 in my XSR700 is as hard as its reputation
I am running Castrol Power 1(Semi-Synthetic) now and have this Full Synthetic to try next and compare on my VStrom.

under the 'Typical Data' tab, they have identical specifications
Other than the Ca content, Mass % 0.132 that seems to be missing from the bike oil. No idea if it's an issue, but it's a difference it seems.
The MC 4ST 10w50 oil has a very similar Ca content rating to this one. So shouldn't make any difference to suitability.
From memory, the main difference between motorcycle and non-motorcycle oils is generally additives to do with the wet clutch components.
I think as long as it is JASO MA (which this is) then its' fine for motorcycles with wet clutches (which most have).

Haha, figures, I bought some 5W 30 last week, cheapest I could find it was $65. Oh well.
5w-30 Also discounted.
https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/penrite-penrite-full-syn…?This doesn't state it meets the JASO MA spec. It's ACEA A5/B5
Reckon this would work for my 20 year old laser or should I go semi or mineral? It's the right rating, just thought full synthetic might be too thin.
My 26 year old Nissan loves it. Check your specs. Thought the focus was from 2003 in Aus running 5/30. My old laser used 10/40
I have no idea on how to do it. Could someone please update the cash back to include Shopback?
just in time for my service
