I use Wix 51358 filter and any Euro Spec 0-40 Syn Oil Amsoil or Mobile doesn't really matter.
Rock Auto for filters about 7.50 each and 3.5 qts oil.
Gear lube 90-140 Amsoil from a 5 gal bucket. Not sure how much due to using a pump.
Change every year regardless of miles. Its cheap insurance.

Rotella T6 full synthetic or Mobile One 0-40. My dealer straight up told me that those are great choices.
What you need to remember is that the manufacturers do not make there own oil or fluids. Case in point: I have a few Polaris quads with the Hillard front differentials. The dealer insists that you use their $20/liter Demand Drive fluid. Spent a few moments on the Hilliard Corporation website and they recommend UTF (Universal Transmission Fluid) which sells for $12/ 4 liters. If the guys that make the parts for Polaris and the US government recommend it, good enough for me. No issues in 10 years and at about an 7th the price

Thanks good point. Works for me. What do you use for gear or chaincase oil? A few guys on this tread meantioned a few. But only 2 guys use the same weight. Seems 2 be a wide range. Go with best bang for my buck?Rotella T6 full synthetic or Mobile One 0-40. My dealer straight up told me that those are great choices.
