Default 2009 ER6n Shell Rotella T6 engine oil??

Hey guys, so I've been reading up on different type oils to use for my oil change and a lot of have been talking about how great the Rotella T6 is. My main concern that it's labeled for diesel engine. So am I finding the right one?

Amazon.com: Shell Rotella 550019921-3PK T6 5W-40 Full Synthetic Heavy Duty Diesel Engine Oil (CJ-4) - 1 Gallon Jug Pack of 3: Automotive Amazon.com: Shell Rotella 550019921-3PK T6 5W-40 Full Synthetic Heavy Duty Diesel Engine Oil (CJ-4) - 1 Gallon Jug Pack of 3: Automotive

Another I found was that T5 is just right with 10w - 40 viscosity meeting Manual book guidelines.

It is also JASO-MA rated - Japanese Automotive Standards Organization, the go to in this case.

"Japanese standard for special oil which can be used in 4-stroke motorcycle engine with one oil system for engine, gearbox and wet clutch system. Fluid is non-friction modified."

It will work fine. I've been using Rotella dino in my dual sports.
