is it 4 stroke motercylce oil or atv oil-mine says valvoline atv 4 stoke oil- 10w-40 and has a picture of a atv on it. it sells for 1.99 a quart-i have also see a motorcylce oil but that is for motorcylcles. i do not know if there is a difference but i would buy the actual atv oil.
hope this helps

Thats not what i have.But it is 4stroke oil for a wet clutch,so i cant see where there would be any differance.Other than packaging.

It will be fine to run it. The "motorcycle" oil vs "ATV" oil isn't any different (other than the picture on the lable). There is a difference betweent the 4-stroke and 2-stroke oils though. I have run it and it seems to work as well as the Honda GN-4 oils. As for price, you didn't get a break, $1.89-$1.99 is the normal and often goes on sale for $1.49!!
