^T6 is good in bikes and the old white bottle Rosmella used to be JASO MA rated too. Idk if it is any more.
IMO the "gas" Rotella is good marketing. I've been using regular ole 15-40 "diesel" oil in every 4 stroke gas engine I own for many years. It's the most economical to buy, and if I bought into the specific oil for a specific engine stuff, I'd have 10 different kinds of oil on the shelf.
Big mowers, 350 Chevy boat engine, Cars, AND the diesel truck all bathe in 15-40.
Idk why I'd use anything else. On sale $10-12/gal is pretty much cheaper than any other.
However the only thing I wouldn't use Rotella white in is my diesel. It stinks, literally, and for some reason the couple times I used it, the truck seemed to use a lot of oil. Maybe coincidence but the smell wasn't.
