You want an oil with no moly in it for the primary. HD formula +, HD syn3, Mobil1Vtwin 20w50 or 10w40, Amsoil MCV 20w50, Redline MTL, RP Maxcycle 20w50. (these can go 5000 miles)
Most all of the car oils have additives that can cause your clutch to slip. The best car oil for the engine that wally world may have is the Mobil1 15w50 and the Havoline 20w50. The Mobil1 15w50 can go 5000 miles the Havoline about 3500. You can also use RotellaT 15w40 HDEO or Delo400 15w40 or Delvac 15w40 in the engine and those will go 3500 easy as well.
The supertech gear oil is fine for your trans but I would change it at 15,000 miles. ST also has a 75w90 synthetic gear oil that would be fine as well.

RE: anything wrong with super tech 85 140 gear oil freom wally world
ok heres where i am so far so give it to me like i'm a three year old[8D] i just changed out my crank case and oil filter it was getting dark so i had to run to autozone and see what they offered for motorcycles, ended up going with a valvoline motorcycle oil 20/50 weight its dino not synthetic,
i am familiar with the 75/90 synthetic oil that wally world sells, is it ok to use it since i'm running a dino in the crankcase, and what hole are you suggesting the 75/90 for, the tranny or primary? and what would you go with for the other hole,?
i have heard that rotella 15 40 in the tranny and primary are good though that seems a little light to me for a transmission gear oil,
damn this is confusing[:@]
