On the BMS website it says SAE10W/40. Does it have to be motorcycle oil or can it be the same as you use in your car? Bought Valvoline 4stroke sae10w/40, just wanted to know for future buying. The specs for gear oil are SF80W/ . I was told the SF is an old designation and was replace with SAE. Regardless I purchased Valvoline High Performance SAE 80w- gear oil. Also says "Limited Slip" as a sidenote. Good? Thanks.

Any brand name of automotive oil is fine . 80w90 is also called GL5 ( gear lube ) . The limited slip is for those with a limitd slip rear end that uses clutches to shift power from the spinning wheel to the other one . I use Mobil1 80w90 in my 2T gear box
