The only kind of oil I could find at my local hardware store that has JASO on in is Rotella T 15w40 diesel oil. But I have read that 15w is bad for cold starts apparently?
Just because 15w40 can work doesn't mean its the best for your engine.
If its the only JASO rated oil I can find should I just use this or just use a non synthetic 4 stroke motorcycle oil?

Unless someone else sees a kind of oil on Home Hardware that they know has a jaso rating? I looked at every damn bottle and only seen it on the one but the writing is so damn small its hard to tell!

4 stroke motorcycle oil will work! Many people use this in quads also. Basically the same type engines and clutch systems. Just google all the choices you have in engine oils..https://www.google.com/search?q=moto...atv+engine+oil
