General consensus seems to be in the neighborhood of 80:1 (fringe measurements range from -32:1 to +100:1) for a full-synthetic premix oil, and some riders do not believe in the synthetic oils and prefer a mineral base, or a combination ("synthetic-blend" type).

My personal choice for use is for a full-synthetic (Castrol TTS) at 70:1 for my liquid cooled bikes.

There are a lot of good full-synthetic premix oils to use. I use Castrol as it's easily available where I live and, well, Castrol and I go back a long time, so part of it is the familiarity of the brand. Ask your dealer what they recommend for your bike.
