Valvoline T4 full synthetic is one of the best motorcycle oils you can get esp for the price. Excellent for a wet clutch application.

I did purchase 6 quarts of Valvoline 10W-40 Full Synthetic from Jet for $6.27 a quart no sales tax and no shipping. This is as low as I have found it.

Here are the specs on the 4T stroke SAE 10W -40 Full Synthetic: Grey bottle
**For performance trusted by motorcycle owners and race teams around the world, use Valvoline Motorcycle oil. It is formulated for the specific needs of motorcycles, including high temperatures, high RPM'S and wet clutch systems.
** Synthetic formula maximizes power and acceleration
** Outstanding wet clutch protection for maximum power transfer & Smooth shifting
** Added protection against harmful deposits that can decrease engine performance
** Excellent wear corrosion protection to help keep the engine performing its best
Exceeds API services SJ/SG/SF, JASO MA2
I have a 2014 RTS-SE6 I have been using this oil for 4 years, I have not had any problems with shifting or etc.
I have bought this oil in Wal-Mart.

BAJARON told me the oils for these Spyders MUST BE JASO MA2 or else it sounds like it will destroy a clutch much faster. I went and got Amsoil today for mine @ 12.00 a quart. I'm not saying it's the best oil on the market but I run it in my sleds n it excels over anything else I've ran n for what these things cost I'm not going cheap on oil.

I'll check the Wal-Mart website. ( off topic: I have 2 more months of riding time left, before I get the sled ready for the winter months, I don't have much down time between the two seasons, spyder and Sled).
Back on topic. and post what I find.

If you get it on amazon get 6 of the 1 qt bottles in place of the case of 6. it's cheaper that way for some reason.
