I have two hard and fast rules concerning oil:
1. Any oil is better than no oil.
2. Oil is much cheaper than engines.
I use what is convenient. Note that most owners manuals have a large overlap of 10W-30 and 10W-40 for temperatures at which they are recommended. This means they will both work in the broad band of temperatures when most riding is done.
