Mobil 1 Syn. V-twin aircooled 20/50 motor oil.
Mobil 1 Syn. gear oil with blue cap 75/90.

I have been running these oils for a few years now was very suprized when I totally torn down my motor for a rebuild. It was VERY clean inside both crank case and primary/trans. case with very minimal wear. My motor had 33k on it and changed oil every 5k. I also run the Mobil 1 oil filter also.

Jersey,
The Mobil 1 is the way to go.
I run it in my M2, S2 and Blast.
I change it a bit more often than Azbueller but that's my preference.

Most Autozone's carry both.

I've been running the synthetic Mobil 15w50 auto oil. I'm sure the 20w50 V-twin oil probably has some magic stuff in it, but I can't always find it. I change it and the gear oil at 5000 mile intervals.
