    75W or 80W-90 is fine.

      Yep.

      Even the cheapo Wally World stuff is marked GL5, which is all you need.

        I used Valvoline 85-90 GL-5 from O'reilly's auto parts in mine.

        1980 GS1000GT (Daily rider with a 1983 1100G engine)
        1998 Honda ST1100 (Daily long distance rider)
        1982 GS850GLZ (Daily rider when the weather is crap)

        Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.
