Default Oil Problem (Aprilia). Where can I get 15w-50 SEMI-synthetic

Hey guys, we just swapped a motor out on a RSV1000 milla. We can't find the proper oil anywhere. Aprilia states that a full synthetic will cause the clutch to slip. So need a 15w-50 semi-synthetic bike oil.

Any idea's? All our resources are coming up dry, pun intended.

Haha, well first of all, we found a premium Penzoil Motorcycle oil that meets JASO MA standard. It's a 10w40. And an Aprilia TSB ok's a 10w40 Jaso ma for replacement due to some clutch issues with 15-50 semi syn.

Second, we are actually a ....... or were a Ape dealer. We have one in for repair, and we couldn't find the oil anywhere, not even from other Ape dealers. I WISH I was an owner haha. Of course, I may not be typing this if that was the case.

&lt;- 0 motorcycle experience.......... at the moment haha.

Again, appreciate the help guys.
