Your motorcycle comes from Honda usually with 10w-40 mineral base motorcycle oil. This is what they recommend for year round driving. You can use any oil that is JASO MA certified motorcycle oil. 10w-40 for cold climate (Wisconsin). 20w-50 for warm climate/touring. Car oils use different additives and may cause scoring in certain types of cam bearings. Do not use any oil that says " Energy Conserving " on the label . It will shorten the life of your wet clutch and transmission gears. If you choose Synthetic oils, they will help your bike run cooler and shift easier. Shell Rotella T and Rotella T Synthetic 15w-40 are inexpensive JASO MA oils. The 15w-40 would be a great all around weight for your needs. You will need 4 quarts of oil, an aluminum drain plug washer, and a filter. Pour in 3.2 quarts , run the motor, and check the oil level . Top up as needed.
