Oil and Gasoline 4 Stroke

Need oil for your 4-stroke Motocross.

Should I use mineral, semi-synthetic or full synthetic oil?

The difference has a big impact on the life of the oil. Mineral oil is less expensive, but you will need to change it more regularly to protect your engine.

A synthetic oil will keep its lubricating property longer at very high temperatures.

It is also important to choose a top-of-the-range oil recommended for transmission with the clutches bathed in oil.

Motocross brands like Husqvarna and KTM recommend full synthetic grade 10W50 oil to honor the warranties. 

Japanese brands like Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha recommend a grade 10W40 oil.

The oil grade numbers represent the viscosity of the oil. Take 10W40 for example. The 10 represents the viscosity of oil when cold and the 40 represents the viscosity of oil when hot. The smaller the 1st number, the more liquid the oil will be when cold and conversely, the larger the 2nd number, the thicker the oil will remain at high temperature. So in winter, it is strongly advised to drive with 0W40 offered by Amsoil. In this way you will help start the cold motorcycle while maintaining the protection of the hot engine.
