Unless a bike has an existing clutch problem, you will not have slippage issues.

No proof as be offered to verify the notion that Automotive oils cause slippage. Although it would be "better" (but not "required") to stay away from oils with more friction modifiers. Motorcycle oil simply is a way to charge a higher price for a lesser product.

Do yourselves a favor and use a good quality Diesel Synthetic Oil.

But hey, this is just another opinion from some idiot. ;-P
I have a friend that used diesel oil on his bike, can't remember what but there was something wrong with it , after he switched to diesel type the problem went away, I'm gonna have to ask him
