OIL???
Is that crank case oil?
Mid/finnal drive oil?
Oil of olay?
You may have asked for more than you wanted.
Think some here may have a "preferred oil"

engine oil
20w50 Castrol or equivilent, non-synthetic. Do a search on oil if you want to read everyone's opinion.2H7 (79) owned since '89

use the right oil
Sorry,
thought there would have been 20+ replies about "oil" long ago
Yamaha manual, above 5C, 20/40
15C and below, 10/30
I live in CA CA land (seldom goes below 50F here) and use 20/50, no problems so far.
Don't use oils with friction modifiers that may cause your wet clutch to slip.
