i've always used the Bel Ray gearsaver oil 80w if I remember right. It's not realy that thick but still needs to warm up good before beatin on it. Never had any problems , but I change it pretty often also.

I have always ran the Honda 85W gear oil specifically for 250R and CR250 transmission. When rebuilding my crank, the transmission gears still looked like new.

Gotta Go with the Belray myself. I've ran it in my 99YZ250, My Banshee, and my R, never had a problem.
