If the royal purple is for cars then you should change it. If it is for m/c then it will be ok. Car oil has friction modifiers in it that will eventually cause the clutch to start slipping.

There are synthetic oils for motorcycles. I'm not sure if Royal Purple has some or not. Maybe someone can chime in on that answer.

If it wasn't for M/C than I would switch to Honda.
