Ok I have only changed the oil once on my new ride with the Polaris Plus stuff. It was expensive. Can I still change to something as good or better without doing any damage to my motor at this point?:confused:

Yes. Just make sure you get an oil suitable for a wet clutch.

Most like Amsoil or Rotella T.

I run Maxima Maxum 4 Ultra.

The Amsoil and Maxima are synthetics. The Rotella in 15w40 is a mineral, which is what most use. 5w40 Rotella is synthetic.

Yep! Wal-Mart seems to be the store of choice to get the Rotella the cheapest.
