Brand New BF 650 First Impression
#11
MadLT, good find. I have heard the Rotella T is really good stuff. For 15 bucks, I could definitely be talked out of using Mobil MX4T (9.50 a quart!). I have used the SuperTech filters in all of my vehicles for the past five years. They are really an awesome filter made by Champion labs with synthetic media. (they are practically free at 2-2.50 a piece too. Thanks for the tip on the part #.
So far, so good. I have not had any belt issues at all. Been riding her in low up to 20 mph or so. This is an awesome rig for the money I paid. I am so glad I didn't buy the King Quad for full retail MSRP.
Bubba out!

You can find Amsoil for just above $6 a qt if you shop around. A little more than the Rotella syn in gallons at WalMart, but it has the Jaso MA rating.
I've been considering the Wix filter in auto size for my BF750, and it is also available as NAPA Gold. Seems like a well built filter...any thoughts?

I use the Amsoil 10W-40 in my engine and front diff, it seems to be pretty good stuff. I also use the amsoil oil filter as well. For those of you that have done the filter research, are the Amsoil filters a good choice?? I use the Amsoil hydraulic oil in my rear diff. Thanks for the info fellas

From the research I have done, the Wal-Mart Supertech filter is up there with the best of the filters. It is made by Champion Labs like the Bosch and Mobil 1 and the filtration rate is as high as it gets. And the $2.00 price is a huge bonus.
Even though the Rotella isn't marked JASO-MA it does not have friction modifiers to mess with the clutches. They just didn't have it tested under Japanese ratings (JASO). Since it is an all purpose oil for on and off road diesels and gas engines it does not have automotive friction modifiers in it, but it is still rated for use in our ATV's.
3 quarts at $6 a quart for Amsoil $5-6 Bosch 3323 Filter = $23-24 engine oil and front diff oil change
$13.00 for a gallon (4 quarts) of Rotella and Supertech ST7317 filter $2 =$15-16 engine oil and front diff oil change
