I run Yamalube 4 20w40 in my 04 Eiger. I keep hearing that this is expensive oil. Rocky Mountain ATV has it for $13.29 for 6 quarts. Is this expensive? I haven't seen any other oils that are safe for wet clutches. What do you guys run? Should I be running something else? When it comes to prunes, is 1 enough? Is 2 too many? Thanks.

That is pretty cheap. If its Yamalube, that is really cheap.

Also, check out Motul oils, good stuff.

Black wheels, plastics, some shiny chrome pieces. Left over dirt from last year, handle bars.

I wouldn't skimp on oil. I use Mobil1 synthetic motorcycle oil in my Eiger and Stitch's Polaris. I can get it at my Wal-Mart. AmsOil is good, so is Motul, as well as any other name brand motorcycle oil. A synthetic is always more expensive, but you will notice smoother shifting and it will be more resistant to heat breakdown.

That IS a very good price for Yamalube.
