Default New 49mm fork question

After my wifes Evil Knievil curb jump into a telephone pole resulting in a broken wrist, bent rim, dented front fender and bent forks, I have ordered the parts I need to repair the bike. I found some parts on e-bay, but had to order the forks from Zanotti's.
I ordered the left and right fork assemblies, but i'm not sure if oil is included or not. If not, should I go with the reg oil, SE fork oil, or an after market oil?
It's an 06 Street Bob by the way.

SE oil works great..... i would think complete assemblies would already have oil in them though

When I ordered mine (last month from Zannottis) they came with oil already in the forks.
