Best Answer

For this bike, use any 15-40 W oil intended for motorcycles. Don't use regular car or automotive oil with Teflon or moly additives. If the engine is worn, you can use single grade 40 W oil, since the thicker oil will better lubricate all contact surfaces. A 20-50 W engine oil may also be all right. Don't use 10-30 W oil as it is probably too thin.

What if you use a different type of oil in your 2010 Honda Accord?

If you mean a different weight then you're not very wise. Use the exact weight oil that Honda recommends. If you are referring to the brand of oil, you do not have to use Honda oil. In fact Honda does not even make oil their oil is refined by another company. You can use any major brand oil of your choice, as long as it is the correct weight.
