Just use some 10W40. Make sure it doesn't have any friction modifiers, such as Castrol Magnatec. Halfords own brand etc would be fine.

Either will be fine. Don't sweat it too much, it's more important that you change it often enough than to get the exact type of oil.

On most bikes it doesn't matter TOO much to move a little from the specs, on a bike like the SR125 which is simple and low powered, it matters even less, so anything fairly standard should do.
As above, just don't go for fancy car oils, which can cause problems with bike clutches.
