No and I would not use any oil additives in a wet clutch transmission. More snake oil.

not snake oil.

just use 15w40 or 5w40 diesel oil, they still have zinc and phos, and now some are also using boron.
the new diesel oils are designed for the new epa put more wear causing soot into the engines. best oil one could put in a motorcycle.

There is concern regarding  the lack of zinc in oils being in engine with flat tappets.. I don't think we need to worry about..
