Rotella T6 is 5W-40 - and what you want for the Ninja.
As a preventative measure, I would drain the floatbowls now to get the gas out.
I'd also personally drain the tank and refill with fresh gas before trying to start it.
How does the oil look? At this point, if the oil looks OK, I would probably wait until it's riding weather to change it.
If the oil looks really bad and you are planning to do a second oil change, I would go with the standard Rotella T 15W-40 first and do the T6 second. No need for the more expensive synthetic the first time around. I'd only do a double change if it was
really bad though.
