Hmm...says it's wet clutch compatible.  Doesn't say motorcycle in its list of applications, though.
As long as it doesn't say Energy Saving (and I didn't see it on the label), it should be OK.

I agree with the Sarge: you can have it analyzed after a few thousand miles, and see how it goes.  I switched my Shadow over to Rotella T synthetic, and I haven't had any problems with it.  Shifts nicer when it's fully warmed up, runs a bit cooler as well.
