Castrol GPS semi-synthetic would be fine, too. It's the oil I use when any of our bikes have gone past the 6,000km mark

Same motor I believe KR , Did you put the 40mm carbs back onto it from the WP motor & the CDI box to ? . Any of the top oils now adays will be good &
semi-synthetic will do the job too .
