Doing a oil change on my 91 carbie vit and was wondering what oil is best, i dont have a manual for it so how much can i expect to put in it.
Thanks

Suzuki Factory recommends 20w50,
i personally now use 10w60 synthetic, i have tried 5w50 and even went for a month on 10w40 (city driving, suzuki swifts use 10w30 and same engine) but have come to the conclusion that 10w60 is the safest deviation as it's 10 below and above 20w50.
(not to mention after my third oil change every 5000kms, the oil seems to retain it's colour rather than going black)
