Hey i bought some of the Rotella T 5w40 that islanderman bought, the SAME exact kind! i Noticed taht Kelly posted a pic of Rotella T, it was a DIFF Bottle, and that bottle has diff API ratings n stuff... so im asking... can the Ninja 250R use BOTH? or is 1 of the Rotella T syn 5w40s Better, for the Ninja then the other?
