Quote:SAE 10W-30, API SJ or later (or equivalent), for general use
The bit I can’t help with but you need to know is whether motorcycle oil is ‘API SJ or later’.

Someone round here, learned in the ways of lubricants, will know.

I use the same generator and Cormanus's quote is correct.

I suspect standard oil *with* friction modifiers is preferred (car engine oil).

Motorcycle oil without the friction modifiers is more foam resistant and, of course, wet clutch friendly. These attributes are not applicable to the generator.
