So stock wise would 40 or 50 weight be better?

Neither, your overhead cam will starve for oil until the engine warms suffeciantly, stick to 5w-30

Too many oil choices...My jet ski runs on 10w40 but it's turbocharged...Haven't had a lot of problems with my Raptor since the oil change, had maybe 2 rides on it after that and it ran pretty good.

too many choices...i agree with u
there are 3 things about motor oil that i know for sure

1) it shouldn't be yamalube :rolleyes:
2) it should be 100% synt
3) change it after every 3 rides or 15 hours :thumbs:
