Have a Husqvarna FE250, 2022. - 250cc 4 stroke, single cylinder, wet clutch.
Owners manual calls for a 10w-50 with the JASO spec MA2.
Have been using 10w-40 in so many bikes before this, street triples, DRZ400, DR650, WR250F, 2 stroke gearbox oils.
Would there be any issues in using a 10w-40, or a 15w-50?
10w-50 oils are quite expensive, and if there is little gain (not fussed about power) more wanting longer engine life and better protection.
Some oil manufactures have oils that do not have friction modifiers and are safe for wet clutches but are not JASO MA certified. Does this matter?
