Go for motul 3000t 20w50, or if you couldnt find that like me then go for castrol activ xtra.
Both are 20w50 but finding a genuine castrol can be a real task.

it is recommended to wait till atleast 4000-5000 before changing to a semi synth/full synth as the engine parts get fully in sync with each other then . also after once switching to semi synthetic oil dont go back to mineral .

if you bought the oil then you can use it , no major harm or anything .

I think he meant JASO-MA!!

@sheelpriye

It stands for Japanese Automotive Standards Organization, JASO. One wonders why this Japanese organization has an English name. . . In any case, they have two classifications for motorcycles, "MA" and "MB." MA is the one you want. MB is like the API SL category, it's got all those nasty friction reducing chemicals that may scare your clutch into misbehaving. Again, there is an official JASO seal if the oil has been independently tested. The seal is a rectangle; in the upper quarter of the rectangle will be a serial number, and the lower three quarters will just have the letters MA. If the oil manufacturer did their own testing, instead you'll see just words like "Meets or exceeds JASO MA standards."

Some manufacturers recommend JASO-MA certified oil. AMSOil and Golden Spectro are JASO-MA certified. Some people consider this important. Interestingly, although Honda recommends a JASO-MA oil, Honda oil is not JASO-MA certified. Mostly JASO-MA is pretty much equivalent to SH. In fact, the JASO spec is mostly a reaction to the decrease in zinc-phosphates in SJ and SL oils, and the added molybdenum disulfide in energy conserving oils. Personally, I don't care about JASO standards - they're really not on my radar.
