Does the red cap mobil 1 say its for use in motorcycles

No. But in the Sept. 2004 issue of MCN there was a response sayting that the JASO MA rating (i.e., motorcycle designation) is essentially identical to the old API SG rating and you can use the new oils rated SH (red cap) in Motorcycles with no worries as long as you use 15W and above like 15w-40, 15W-50. What you have to stay away from is oil with moly as that will cause clutch slippage.

During anyone's warranty period, I do not advocate use of any oil that Triumph doesn't recommend.
