Hawk 250 recommended oil

Hi, guys I have been searching this forum and others but can't find any real good reasons and recommendations on certain oils for the hawk. I was told after 500miles to put in synthetic but some guys say it can ruin the seals. Not sure on that but the only reason I wanted to run it is for longer oil changes. but I was told since these don't have filters you can't go past 1500miles anyways with dyno or synth. So makes no sense wasting money on synth unless it helps with shifting or something to me if I gotta change the oil so soon its wastefull. So why are guys recommended synth? And what is the oil change frequency on this bike with dyno oil? Thanks for any input.
