I have been told that if you don't use the recomended oil grade and if you use synthetic that the clutches will slip. Is the Amsoil or the Royal purple considered synthetic and will either one cause any adverse effects on my bike?

I am all for anything that will extend the life of the bike,, maybe pass it on to my kids one of these days. I have seen where people will put these magnetic bands aroundd the oil filter that keeps smaller particles trapped in the filter,, I wonder if they are making them for bike filters?
