I just scored a good deal at Advance auto yesterday on a few qts of Royal Purple 15w40 (on clearance) so I picked them up for our 3 ATV's. You guys think this will work ok? The manuals all call for 15w40 or 20w50. both of my kids units are little polaris' and mine is a Suzuki King Quad 400. I've never used RP in anything before mainly due to its price but hear its decent stuff.
Royal Purple 15w40 in ATV's?

No reason it won't work well in your quads. I've used it in mine when I have left over from diesel oil changes. Use without worry.

Not sure of your quad, but I believe mine (Kawa Brute 750) calls for non energy conserving oils. I believe the RP you have IS energy conserving.
Maybe check the manual...I think it has something to do with molly additive.
If your machine deosn't burn synthetic try Rotella T-6. A lot of happy people using that in their quads. I'm using the Rotella 15-40 but switching to T-6 for winter months.

RP 15w40 is their HDEO, so no friction modifiers in there, so no problems.
Many of the RP PCMO have friction modifiers, but not the 15w40.
