oh yeah you can put that motor oil in your 200x. They reccomend that 10 w 30 for temperatures less that 80 degrees..That's what im using on my 200s.It's winter time anyways.

NO no synthetic oil in ATC's. It will kill your clutch and your clutch will slip like crazy. Use regular mineral oil, ATV oil is good too.

Any good quality 10w30 is fine. I prefer Synthetics in my 4 strokes, not near as picky on my 2 strokes. Ive never experienced any problems running regular Mobile 1 synthetic, but if you have the least bit of worry, then buy a good synthetic that specifies that its designed for a wet clutch. Your motorcycle dealer has a shelf full of different brands, or your local AutoZone or discount automotive will carry Mobile 1 synthetic 4 Stroke Motorcycle Oil.

I run an Amsoil 10w-40 synthetic formulated for wet clutch motorcycles. I have had very good luck with it. No clutch slip. I tried Mobil 1 a few years back on one of my drag bikes. I did have to change the clutches out after using it. But it was a highly modified engine with a 12 inch slick on the rear. I like synthetic oils a lot. I think they are a great advantage in an air cooled motor. Not so much for being slicker. Oils formulated for wet clutches do not have the same friction modifiers as non-motorcycle synthetics, but for there ability to resist breaking down do to high heat.
