I would. Dyno oil last about 1 ride untill it needs change. The 400ex motor ruins oil.
Dyno? And i've heard running synthetic screws with the clutch.

i have run synthetic in my 400ex since i have had it...it is a 2000 and still on the original clutch plates.
I change the oil in it every 5 to 10 rides(depending on how hard i ride) and most of the time, it still looks like new.
Well then what brand and weights of synthetic should I use?

As long as the oil doesn't have friction modifiers it should be fine, it if says it's for a wet clutch it will be fine also.

So I'm now planning on switching to synthetic. But what weight is recommended?
