Default Semi Synthetic VS Full Synthetic
I am now changing to a synthetic engine oil for my raptor after using non-synthetic oil for the break in period and, a bit longer than i should have bout 2-3 months. What do you guys reccommend?

Amsoil if you can get it easily, otherwise Mobil 1. Most important, get an oil without any friction modifiers (moly is bad for clutches).

I use Honda HP4 without moly. It hasn't locked up yet. I don't know if it is any better than anything else, but I like it so far.
