[WillB]

Looking for opinions on RP Max-cycle 10W4, it will be used in a wet clutch atv.

It is a good oil, but very, very, very pricey. I was actually looking at it today at O'Reilly Auto, $17/qt.
Only you can determine if the price is worth the performance.

IMO, I would just use a cheap HDEO 15w40 (ie Rotell T4 or similar) or maybe Mobil 1 High Mileage 10w-40 if you wanted synthetic.
But I am cheap.

Quite honestly, as far as m/c specific oils go, Mobil 1 10w40 4T or Amsoil 10w40 M/c would work just as well for less $$.

for USD$14 you can get a GALLON of Shell Rotella T 15w40 white jug at Walmart its only good down to -36C

Wait, what? You mean I wouldn't have to dip my chips in ketchup, they come already flavored there?
That's it, time for a revolution.
LOL.

In my humble opinion and my motoring experience, RP oil is not worth the money it is sold to. There are a lot of oils sold at a fair price that do their job well. Here in Europe and in Italy in particular RP has absurd prices above 20 € liter while other brands such as Motul, Bardahl, Mobil, Silkolene, Petronas, Castrol, Elf, Shell, can be found around 10 € liter.

by far the best flavor they make...and its not in the USA!!!
while the original version of ketchup did not include tomatoes...the version we eat today (tomatoe ketchup) was in invented in the usa in 1812 !!!
