Hey just wanted to check out what everyone is using for crank case oil. i just got a kx250 and i need to put a new clutch basket in and im not sure what the oil the guy had in it before.

You are going to get as many opinions on this as there are members.  I am running Maxima4 10w-40 syn blend and have for a couple of rides.  My transmission is still running.  Have tried a few others.  Havn't tried ATF yet.

Others may not agree with this, but I feel that if an oil designed for motorcycles is used then there shouldn't be an issue.  IMO it's the frequency of the oil change that makes the biggest difference.  My oil is changed after every ride.  That may be excessive, but it's not too expensive and I feel good about it.     

blueoval:
Others may know about this website I came across.  Quite a bit of forum discussion regarding oil.
