Front: 75-90
Rear: 75-90 or 80-90
I'm sure you could use just 80-90 like above!

I run the REDLINE heavy shock-proof oil. Great stuff! It sticks to your gears well!

I just changed my break-in oil and put Royal Purple in. Maybe it was wishful thinking, but my rig sure seemed roll along nicer after the change...
