Default How often do you guy's change your Grizzly's oil?

Just wanted to check with all you Grizzly 660 owners and see how often you guys change your oil? The book say's every 150 hours or 1,500 miles. This seams like a long time between oil changes for a quad. I know I change the oil on my car every 3,000 miles, but a quad's engine is operated much harder and in much worse conditions than a car's engine. So what do you guy's do? Do you follow the maintenance schedule in the book and do it every 150 hours or 1,500 miles, or have you guy's come up with a different schedule. Also, what engine oil are you guy's using? I took mine in for the 20 hour, and the dealer used Castrol "GO" ATV oil. I thought that they would use Yamalube, should I switch to Yamalube, or just keep using the Castrol "GO" ATV oil? Thanks for the info.

Thanks HELLFISH, I was thinking that every 50 hours seamed more reasonable. I wonder why Yamaha decided that you should change it every 150 hours? Seams like a long time.
