I just use honda gn4 4 stroke oil 20w 50 or 10w 40....the oil filter is on the right side of the engine (right side sitting on quad) its right below the headpipe, its a circle shaped and has 2 8mm bolts.

i run the honda gn4 also. Be careful with those oil filter cover bolts, i broke one on my first oil change, and ive heard of many other people doing it too. Be careful with the drain bolts also...they break

and its very important you make sure to not put the oil filter in backwards
