I use Champion 20W50

Just if you do ride in the heat more or at higher temps, use a synthetic blend with higher numbers

I personally use amsoil and love it, but it does seem that when shutting it off I can smell a little oil smell but I have read that the fully synthetic oils have a little more blow by,

p.s. the amsoil I use is fully synthetic too
