No, use only the weight recommended by the manufacture which is 15w40. I suggest you use a Synthetic oil on this air cooled 4 cycle engine.

10w40 is the oil that is recommended for a 2002 Honda Rebel 250. Do not use an oil that is lighter than 10w40.
10w40 four stroke motorcycle oil. do not use car or truck oil! 10w40 4 stroke oil is car & truck oil which are also 4 stroke engines. You can use the very same oil you use in your car and truck as long as you use the correct weight which is SAE 10w30 and not SAE 10w40. Read your owners manual and you will see it does not recommend 10w40. There is no difference in so-called motorcycle oil and car or truck oil. I do however highly recommend you use full synthetic oil in any air cooled engine.
10w40 Semi Synthetic Oil
Use only the weight recommended by Volvo and I doubt that they recommend 10w40.
I use Motul 10w40.
