What octane gas is recommended? Does anyone have a favorite oil and what viscosity? Thanks for your suggestions.

My S200 ran fine on 87 for the most part, save, as noted in another post, on a 100F day doing WOT/freeway speeds once.  Got a bit of ping that day, so backed it down and added some high octane non-eth at the next fuel up.
Oil.  Depends a bit on the weather & specific bike.  10/40 for the most part for me in my air-cooled 2 valve S200.

If you have injectors - might do them a favor and make sure the pump says "Top Tier" fuel is sold there.
