chevron delo 400 15w40

[Sam R]

I purchased Maxima 10W40 for my first oil chance. Not that I would know much difference. Technology is so good now most high quality oils will work.

yes but i also use it my one without the rekluse

[Kilabanshee]

Yeah I was told I had to run the without moly oil in the clutch side. I later went to change my oil for the first time and went to an offical honda dealer and they said you can run the same oil in both sides. What is the real purpus of the without moly oil?

[MX#9]

I have not looked in my owners manual for several months,but I'm pretty sure it states in there to NOT run the moly in the tranny side as it is not good for the clutch plates.

[ckasper18]

I also use the honda oil.

[Hammer trx450r]

Too slippery for the clutch plates
