Hi Davieboy, I use a oil called ROCK OIL 10W40 mineral in my st70 and it seems to work a treat ;)

20/50 seems a bit heavy, usually Honda recommend a lighter oil, back in the 70's it was 10/30 but 10/40 seems more widely available these days.
I use Castrol Power1 10/30 but my bike is 1971 I would go with what Castrol recommend.
