Doesn't really matter, but determing factor is weather. Colder the weather, the thicker oil is needed, up here in MN I use a 10W-30.

royal purple 20w50 (that was going to be my next oil for my T2)

I am using Amsoil 20w50 Racing Synthetic I have my OMP pulled out and I run Amsoil Premix too. I just got my hands on som eof Pettits premix and I am giving that a try.



I used to run Castrol GTX 20W50 its good stuff just make sure to change your oil every 3K miles no more.

actually in colder weather, thinner oil is called for
