Hmmm... this says one thing... 2.5 Gal but shows a 1 Gal jug??

It’s a great price if you really get 2.5 gallon. Image

Ok WallyWorld had the Rotella T6 5W-40 Gallon hugs for $22.47. I got two.
And they also had the correct Fran filter for the FJ-09. I’ve already got like 5 filters for the Tenere.
Both bikes are in need of oil changes. I think I’ll be doing these changes soon. [THUMBS UP SIGN]

You found it, good! Been using Rotella oils for 10+ years. What matters to us is that an oil meets the JASO spec for motorcycles. If you look on your Rotella jug you'll see, among many other ratings, that it's JASO MA/MA2.

Here's what the JASO spec means. https://www.oilspecifications.org/articles/JASO_MA_JASO_MB.php
