Alright guys, i've recently bought a Megelli naked 125s.

Its a 4 stroke I am doing a service on it which is relatively easy (as the fella who i bought it off has not service since he'd bought it). I rang megelli up and asked about what oil they recommend and they said 15/40W but the only 15/40w oil i can find is for, boat engines, a few people have told me that 10/40w will be good, but would like to know if this is right and also what oil would you recommend to use ?

Also what quality oil should i put in it.....

Mineral
Part Synthetic
Fully Synthetic

Cheers,

Dan

Halfords semi-synthetic, £25 5 litres...It's got good reviews and i've not had any issues with it.

It's £29:99 for the fully synthetic.
