If you change bikes every year or so,,,
and dont ride much or hard,,,then it really doesnt matter.
The Next owner will get to deal with the effects,,you wont have to.
Otherwise,,,You’d be WISE to use 20w-50 exclusively.

RE:
what kind of oil do i need for my dirt bike?
its a 2007 yamaha ttr 125 le 4 stroke, don't care about the brand just need to know 10w-30, 10w-40 or what?? my manual is lost.
When you get a bike that you never owned before cardinal rule #1 is change the oil and then get an extra quart or 2 of the same oil.
Not good for a bike to mix oils of different brands and viscocitys. Since you don’t know what oil the previous owner used this is safer.
anything from 10w-40 to 20w-50 will work just fine. The only time 20w-50 is to thick is when the temperature drops below 30 degrees. The most important thing is to always use synthetic oil, and make sure it’s an automotive oil NOT motorcycle oil. And heres the research to prove that statement.

No offense Tom B but I think you need to stop trying to give advice in the motorcycle section. 9 times out of ten you are dead wrong.
My son had his 2001 TTR125, During in winter time. We use 10/30w, In spring and fall. We use 10/40. also sometime in summer, In hot day. We use 20/50 w.
Some Manual says 5/30 for winter time.
2001 Ttr 125
general rule:
All Japanese 4 strokes use 10W40
All Europeans 4 strokes use 20W50
MAKE SURE YOU USE ” MOTORCYCLE OIL”
half of the 10w-40 OIL for to be add with another half of DIESEL OIL.
20w 50….will make your engine last longer
