Answer 1

Do Not use 30w oil as the energy conserving additives in it will mess up your clutch. A good 10w-40 or if you live in a very hot climate maybe 20w-50. Lots of people like Mobil 1 synthetic. Another popular oil is Shell Rotella 15w-40 which you can buy cheap at Wal-Mart. Right now I have Valvoline 10w-40 motorcycle oil in my bike.

Just don't use any oil that says ENERGY CONSERVING on the back of the bottle.

Answer 2

Just check the manual. It will say it under fluids, engine, or transmission. If you don't have a manual, I recommend getting one. Go to a local dealer, and ask them if they can order one for you, they will also tell you what oil.
