Castrol GTX 10-40. Using a synthetic is just a plain waste of $$$.

HD Formula+ in now but when I change it next week, Rev Tech primary fluid. Primary fluid is to lube the chain and to cool the clutch, 10+ bucks a qt? No way!

I don't think it will really matter.
What matters is to pick one and change it with some regularity.

FWIW, I've been using Valvoline 10w40 MC for a couple thousand miles and find the clutch engagement very smooth.
