Want this question answered?
Motor oil does in fact freeze. Most motor oil never actually reaches the point where it is cold enough to freeze though.
motor oil has got a boiling point/brake down point of lubricating oil to be 300-370 degrees Celsius. once it has boiled it loses its lubricating properties.
because
after extensive research i have come to the conclusion the the freezing point of 10w40 motor oil is -500 degrees F -500 degrees F, really?! -500F is about -22.4K. The coldest anything can get is 0 K.
Motor oil is lubricant used for internal combustion engines. Motor oil serves several important functions in an engine. It carries heat away from the engine as it lubricates moving parts and helps to prevent corrosion.
brake fluid doesn't have the viscosity that motor oil does and it will not lubricate engine parts properly. It would definetely cause some major damage at some point.

A Cheap motor oil
The oil is a compound, the additives make it a mixture.
Use any brand of 5w30 motor oil.Brands are not important but changing the oil and keeping the oil filter changed every 3000 miles is very important.
Oil is oil period. You need to know "What viscoisity(weight) oil to use in the motorcycle?" These engines rev high and the right weight oil is extremely important.
It would be found at the lowest point of the engine's oil pan. It takes a 15mm wrench to remove it.
