Should I buy the starter kit? And other questions...

One of the things that I do a lot of before jumping head first into a project is research, research, research. When I purchase my scooter in the next week or two they also give you the option of purchasing a starter kit. It's about $44 and it includes gear oil, motor oil, a spark plug, Loctite, and some fuel stabilizer. I went to my local O'Reillys to try and price things out separately and see if I can save a few bucks just buying it off the shelf. The only gear oil I could find was a pretty big jug and it didn't say anything about specifically being for scooters and motorcycles. Does this matter? Also I've heard a lot of people recommend the NGK spark plug but I have no idea which one to get. And I'm also wondering about an appropriate fuel stabilizer that I could find in my local auto parts shop. I guess if I had the answers to these questions II could price everything out accurately and answer my own question haha. Thank you for your help everyone!

I guess it would help if I mentioned the make and model of which scooter I'm getting, especially for the spark plug question. I'll be getting the Tao Tao Roman 150 scooter.
