5w-40 would be ideal,
Motul 8100 X-cess 5w-40 - www.opieoils.co.uk/p-8...hetic.aspx
or
Fuchs Titan Supersyn 5w-40 - www.opieoils.co.uk/p-9...e-oil.aspx
these 2 oils are good quality full synthetic engine oils and good price. If you want even better oil, id go for the Gulf Competition 5w-40, Millers CFS 5w-40 or Fuchs Titan race Pro S 5w-40.
Cheers,
Liam

Fuchs Titan Supersyn 5w-40, that's what I use in my 180, Opie did a good deal on 5L + Filter for like £29 or something when I got it.
