I see a lot of discussion about the various oils available and the different weights. Don't have an owners manual so I'm not sure what's recommended, but I see a lot of reference to 25w-50. Is that the factory recommended oil for the XB?

NO..... for normal temps, use a 20w-50.

Note that you need to use API C rated oil...

I have never seen a 25-50 oil.

I just bought some Red Line 20-60 for the summer.
