Any fully synthetic hypoid oil should do.

What oil did you run in the 14,000 Km old one you sent me?
I never thought to ask if it is was coming dry or filled either.
I was going to refill it and swap with my current 70,000Km one.
Take that off for an inspection and then use as my spare.

I had the bike for only six months when disaster came knocking . the dealer who prepped the bike before shipping it to me said all oils were topped up and I never thought of asking what brand ...sorry hence my question
