I believe strongly in Mobil 1 after 120k miles in my Pathfinder. Many recommend:

Mobile1 15/50 or 20/50
Primary Formula+
Mobile1 Tranny 75/90 Gear Lube

Depends on what, where, and how you ride. Look on the oil forum and you'll get hours of reading.

I don't know which oil to recommend, but I can recommend AGAINST Syn3: that crap increased my shift lever effort and made it hard as hell to find neutral. And no, I didn't overfill or underfill.
