From what I read the Honda Oil is not the best choice. If so, what is the best brand and weight for a stock 400EX. Is Mobil 1 15w 50 a good choice.

there have been many oil threads in the past week or two that will tell you why the honda oil is junk(there is even a thread asking why it is junk)and what oil is best to use,you can't use"oil"for the search because it is only 3 letters but try looking back a few days and you should find them.i know 86atc250r has provided some valuable info on oil,you might find the threads quicker if you just searched for his most recent replies and went from there.
