You might heed the observations from others on the "Gas Mileage Thread" that the recommended 10W-30 offers optimum fuel consumption.
The Honda 10w40 averaged around 40 mpg
The Rotella T6 15w40 was getting me 44 to 46.
The 10w30 and now I'm consistently getting 50 mpg
I got in the range of 3.9 to 5.5L/100km (spirited riding) on the CB1100 using 5W40 full-synthetic diesel engine oil.
