That depends on the motor. If it is a 4 stroke motor you should be alright but if it is a 2 stroke motor than you need special 2 stroke oil. This is because in a 2 stroke the oil gets mixed in with the gas. Some bikes automatically mix it for you but all 2 strokes have it mixed.Is it ok to put car engine oil to a motorcycle?
It's better than no oil. ,but considering motorcycle engines reach much higher temperatures, You might consider making an effort to get the right oil.

Sure, but I always used synthetic in my bike, whereas I don't in my cars.
its best to run what the bike specs. say in owners manual. also dont run a synthetic oil, will cause clutches to slip.
You can't just use any car oil in a motorcycle.





Look at the back of the bottle. There will be circles that look like a target, if it says ';energy conserving'; put it back. There are friction modifiers in ';energy conserving';oil that will make the clutch on your bike slip and fail.





I've been using car oil in my bikes for many years and miles without a problem.

if u ask a bike shop...they would say no cuz of the clutch that share engine oil. A car transmission is a separate unit so oil might be different.
yes if they are in same level of thickness as 10-30w.
