Oil question (sorry yes another)

[Sweetpea]

Hi all, just going to give the bike an oil service in the next week or so and have an offer to buy some Castrol 1535F3 Edge 5W-40 Fully Synthetic Engine Oil.

Would this be suitable or is there a preferred choice?

Bike is R1200 GSA LC 2016

Thanks

No

It is a car oil that does not meet JASO MA2 as recommended for bikes with wet clutches.

Please refer to your manual.

Very good oil below, and post number 2 is 100% correct
