Like sandman said, it depends on your mods really. If you have some money tied up into mods, oil thats a little spendy is easy to justify for the protection. I run Honda HP4 no moly.

I believe the book says 10/40 - And end cap will not change the oil wieght. Stick with whats in your manual.

if you run synthetic, be sure it's JASO MA rated, otherwise clutch might slip.
