well i was thinking that you couldnt use car or truck motor oil due to the fact it doesnt have the materials in it for the clutch and things. So i was wondering abotu a specifif "motorcycle" synthetic oil. Thanks for the help

It's absolutely fine to run in an ATV or dirtbike.

The benefits of running it over petroleum is worth the extra cost and your motor will love you for it.

What else you want to know????

:D

There is no experimenting, you either run the best or run crap. It's up to you...LOL

also Amsoil can only be bought thru dealers not off the shelf at wally world or the local gas station.

Instead of me writing out a book click the link below and do some reading.

I've been using synthetic in my quad for 5 years and only replaced the clutch once. I've been using it in my truck and cars for 10 years.

You didn't waste my time dude, I"m glad to help. I hate to see people spend thousands of dollars on an ATV and dump junk into the crankcase.
