poo wants the synthetic because it remains a constant viscousity with variing temps. I talked to a few oil experts since this has started. they all say pretty much anything non foaming and non corrosive in the oil line will work. 90W Gear lube gets way to thick in cold conditions. Idea is to keep chain and gears lubed without building pressure in the chain case.
Yes 90w regular gear lube is horrible stuff when it's cold, but Synthetic is not. Which is why you should run synthetic. I have run 2 stroke oil in a chaincase to get a leaky Cat home without blowing the chain.
