Yup, i use 10w40

i like the thinner oil since the orifices are so small, and since i dont ride em in hot weather. if i were to go out to the desert id run thicker oil.... thats just me though

10w-40w. Any brand name will due. Do not use syn.oil in a auto clutch motor. Clutch plates will eventually slip.

yea 10 40 for sure just make sure it dosent have any friction modifyers or energry conserving labels on the bottle,and make sure its designed for motorcycle engines,other than that just change it frequently,i prefer pennzoil because its only 2.50 a quart, and i use a lot since i change it after every other ride
