Kyle,

Use 10W/40 in the transmission, anything else and you might suffer clutch drag. In the engine I would not be too fussed. Some people swear by synthetics but I think a decent mineral 2 stroke oil will be fine, after all that's all there was when these engines were built and they are not highly-stressed.

Regards, Rory Mc.

Kyle,
I've got 15w 40 oil in my tranny and haven't noticed clutch drag. I might try some thinner stuff and see if there's a difference... I run Castrol 2 stroke oil in the motor, I think the bottle has a picture of an outboard boat engine on it. It seems to work well. I do get some smoke, but it's probably due to a slightly maladjusted oil pump. But that's why we ride two-smokers, right?
