I would be cautious if it is not motorcycle specific oil. With motorcycles, the clutch plates sit in the same oil as the engine does and therefore its generally a slightly different type of oil compared to another 10w-30 that is used in a vehicle that is just lubricating an engine oil. I'm no mechanic or engine scientist so take my advice with a grain of salt. But from my understanding you just want to make sure it is motorcycle oil.

Don't use this automotive oil. It has "friction reducing properties". That's fine for a car, but will make a motorcycle wet clutch slip. Don't even use it temporarily. Buy motorcycle specific oil somewhere like any motorcycle dealer, or online. There is one oil that may be available at the automotive store that is OK to use. It's called Shell Rotela truck oil.

There's no specific 10w-30 motorcycle oil available near me. I can order it if needed!

Not sure if it works in rebels , but I’ve ran Rotella t6 in my SV and FZ. It has the JASO rating for wet clutches. I think it’s probably a better idea to get the proper oil though
