you can use any high quality motorcycle oil but I prefer a fully synthetic oil such as Amsoil. the sportbikes run at a high rpm and full synthetic motorcycle oil is the only way to go.

The company recommends using SE Class SAE 10W40, 10W50, 20W40, 20W50. If your changing the filter, you'll need 3. 7 liters, otherwise 3. 3 will fill it.

The make oil specifically for motorcycles. Motorcycle oil is sold pretty much anywhere that sells motorcycles. Just be sure to get the correct viscosity recommended by the manufacturer. It is also a good idea to spring for a full synthetic type of oil. The reduce friction is very beneficial in a high rpm application like a bike engine.
