atv synthetic oil

[300wby mag]

so I've been looking into changing my quads over to synthetic oil.
amsoil seems to be the recommended brand.
does anyone run this in there quads? is it worth the money?

I use mobil delvac 1 0w40 in everything i own from tractors to lawn mowers. As long as it has the JASO certification it will work great.

I have always used this , its the only one I could find that Bombardier approves.

I used AMS atv oil in my Honda and Yamaha atvs, and they start better in cold weather.

As DGL said, make sure it is compatible with the clutch. Regular automotive oil may work but it is not designed for a wet clutch, and you may start slipping.

Pick up an ATV or bike specific oil, like "Thumper", as it has friction modifiers just for that purpose.

If your machine has a wet clutch make sure you are using compatible oil

Note this; it’s important for wet clutch operation.
Make sure it’s marked JASO MA or MA1 or MA2. (do not use JASO MB)
MA2 is the best & will provide the least slippage, personally I will only use a synthetic when it’s cold that is marked MA2.
