The amount of moly (assuming it's pretty high since I use 8008 in my car) is probably not safe for the wet clutch in the P1K.

Definitely not wet clutch friendly is molybdenum content is above 50ppm.

If it’s not JASO-MA rated, you don’t want to use it in a wet clutch set-up. I own 4 ATV’s, one being an old Honda Foutrax 300. Many ATV”ers like myself use Shell Rotella T6 diesel oil in all my bikes. It’s cheap, works great, and is JASO-MA rated. With that said, I’m about to purchase a Pioneer 1000-5 and it will be getting Honda oil.

I'm running Mobil 1 10w-40 full syn motorcycle oil in mine. $9.75 / qt. @ my Napa store, $11.69 @ O'Reillys. Probably going to swap to Amzoil or Royal Purple on next oil change just to see if there's any difference.
