Engine oil weight?

So, I need to do an oil change for my XT660x, but The only oil I can get locally is 10W50, is this oil too heavy to use when the last owner used 10w40?

or will i get by just fine with this engine oil?`

Personally I'd use the internet or get some 10/40 ordered in from your local bike shop.

I can order 10w40, but that goes from 40� for 4 litres, to 130�.... for 4 litres, its the special yamalube like race spec... So either its using the 10/50 or get shafted in the a** by ridiculus prices...

10 years with 10w50. Synthetic. On one occasion 10w60. No problems at all.
