Default What oil to use in Wolverine 450?

Hi, I wanted to know what oil I should use in my machine. Looks like 10w40 is what I need, but I didn't know if I could use full synthetic? If so is Amsoil full synthetic a good choice? Thanks.

If full synthetic is OK I also see Castrol and Mobil 1 have full synthetic 10w40 motorcycle oil. Any thoughts?

Both are excellent oils, and I see you made sure they are motorcycle (wet clutch) friendly, so you cant go wrong with either one. Synthetic will protect better, and longer than standard oil, but as long as you change oil on a regular basis, regular ATV oil works fine too, but most seem to prefer the synthetic for the extra protection.

Thanks for the reply. For as little riding I do, I'll definitely go with the synthetic as the increase in cost won't matter that much. Thanks again.
