  Haven't used the Lucas, but I run 75-90 full synthetic with no problem. I also use a 10-40 full synthetic motor oil in the motor. I live in a central New York climate. I think any of your "brand" name synthetics would be fine. You can buy these oils at any auto supply store.

   Just for the heck of it check your local parts store. I bought Mobil 1 75-90 at Advance auto for a lot less than $20.00. I believe it's just as good.

I agree with Mr. Mike.  $20 plus shipping is out of normal.
Go to any auto parts store or Wal Mart and get name-brand oil for less than $5.

Scoot safely,

Just bought the "Mobil 1" 75W90 Synthetic - it was $11 out the door from O'reilly's.
 The Royal Purple was $22...which gave me a chuckle.
Still smiling, Stig
