Anywhere that stocks Penrite should be able to order it for you. I'd suggest buying a 20L drum and a drum pump. It makes it much cheaper.

I use the Penrite. Just be aware that they do make two types of 10W60, one for cars and one for bikes. Both have the full zinc loadings. I suspect that the car only one (they used to say "not for motorcycle use" on the pack) has the super slippery stuff in it that you can't use with a wet clutch, but I am only guessing. Their latest packaging is now called "MC4ST" which is a full synthetic.

I think the "10/10ths" is old stock, I remember it from a few years ago, as is my Sin10 which I have just used the last of on my service schedule a couple of weeks ago. We are lucky that our local Supercheap store has gone the whole hog on stocking the Penrite range and has included the MC4ST 10/60 on the shelf.

My feeling is there is little relevant difference between the motorcycle and car products apart from the price and lack of friction modifiers. I've used the Ten Tenths premium ten 'Car' oil for nigh on two decades. It's fine. Even in a high stress anvironment like an 8V or hard ridden smallblock.

I've been happily using Penrite's recommendations  for years (check Penrite's website for your bike). HPR15 for V7C & Ten/Tenths Premium 10 for the single throttle body. Repco regularly has 30% off, Autobarn occasionally sells 10 liters for $99, but I find the 10 and 20 litres awkward on the back of the bike.
