I run plain 30 weight on mine. No abnormal effects noticed, except that upon deceleration the clutch whines louder than usual (sort of like what a hybrid sounds like when braking). The original Supercubs from the 50s called for 30 weight, so I don't see any reason why ours can't.

I also have mine jetted for E85 rather than gasoline, so no problems with ethanol either.
