Store brand 30wt motor oil. All its doing is splash lubricating two gears, a tensioner and clutch pack.

Most are talking of using the same. If you read the whole thread alot say u can use anything, but I don't agree with that. I think the v-twin would be good though I have not tried it. I have tried castrol syn 20-50 which was good, probably the same as m1 v-twin.

Mobil 1 v-twin is good and will work in the primary but also check out the specs on Mobil 1 racing 4T for the primary.
