What kind of oil does a Honda Rancher 420 take?

Hello! I’ve been using my ATV a lot and I think it’s probably time for an oil change. Can you tell me what kind of oil a Honda Rancher 420 should take?

I’m glad you’re practicing some preventative maintenance! It’s essential to take care of your ATV if you want to keep it running well for a long time.
Honda GN4 10W-30 4-stroke motorcycle oil is a great choice for your ride. Any 10W-30 or 10W-40 motorcycle oil will work if you can’t find that.
You should never use car oil in your Rancher. It will make the clutch slip and wear out faster than usual.
Honda
recommends changing the oil in your Rancher every 12 months, 100 hours, or 600 miles: whichever comes first.
