I see lots of people using 5w-40 T6 but on Rotella's site they have a T6 15w-40 synthetic. Any information on using this in goldwing?

Rotella T6, 5W-40 works great in in GW1800. I noticed that T4 or 5 comes 5W. Here is a great rebate for Rotella. I one like it last year and my refund came quickly.

Thanks for the replies.... my only concern (for lack of better word) is using 5w-40 vs the recommended 10-40 in arizona. I realize the second number is the most important but not sure if there is any ill effect or not in a warm climate when considering the 5w and 10w
