Maxima Oil
Does anyone out there use Maxima ATV Premium 4T oil in their Ute? I have seen a post or two about it but am skeptical of the benefits in my Manual Eiger. Can someone please advise if it is worth the money?

Some basic oil info: http://www.thumperfaq.com/oil.htm
Maxima has the best add pack (high pressure additives like zinc, etc.) in the business! Their "Premium" oil is just plain old no frills petroleum oil, but at least it is API SG. (Honda and Yamaha oils for instance are now API SJ, a DOWNGRADE in the add pack from SG!)
Worth the money?? Premium is DIRT CHEAP at about $3.00 per liter (a liter is bigger than a quart).
I personally run Premium only during break-in, then switch to Maxima Extra, an ester synthetic after that.
