High ZDDP SF oil was recommended in 1986-2002 when my bike was new. SF oil was still recommended in 2005 as well.
Issue with Suzuki's oil recommendation is that the high ZDDP SF grade oil hasn't been available for years.
Rotella was the closest available oil, one that has been recommended and used by multiple bike and car groups since then.
Has Suzuki "teched" themselves out of all the wear issues with the new wear pads?. Yes, perhaps relative to the rocker/cam interface itself, but No, not really because the cam chain wear out issue is still untouched and that cam chain issue is still a faster acting death than any other issue out there.
And yes, you can change the tensioner and replace the chain when it wears out, but having this happen in approximately 30,000 miles still says Suzuki hasn't addressed all the life limiting oil related wear out issues.
To answer your question requires an owners manual from a post 2010 bike that is KNOWN to have the rocker pads on the cam rockers.
And you are hoping that Suzuki changed their oil recommendation? If so, why should we pay attention to that new recommendation since Suzuki went nearly 20 years recommending a high ZDDP oil that you couldn't ever buy?
And Suzuki now bottles and sells a "Suzuki oil" at the stealership that is KNOWN not to be good for the Savage engine? And if you went there today and asked at the counter they would recommend their house brand of wrong stuff as "factory recommended"?
..... here you go, pay the man and go see if the recommendation changed any .....https://www.google.com/search?q=2017+suzuki+boulevard+s40+owners+manual+pdf&o...
