    My guess is that it is equal to or better than the grease used from the factory.

    Here's the MSDS:

    Doesn't say anything about Moly so it should be fine. I'd wonder if it's worth it though at that price, why not pick up some Mobil 1 or Amsoil for $10 instead of wasting $$$$ BRP grease?

    well like i said, i just bought a new thing of the can am stuff for my bike and its in the grease gun. I'll probably buy some mobil 1 but just curious because you would think it would be better because the atv is made to go through way worst stuff. But then thinking maybe not because you put a lot more kms on it

    It's more than likely a decent synthetic grease relabelled for BRP. It more than likely won't hurt anything but it's probably not anything special. I'd save it for the toys.

    i assume for greasing the U joints?

    any fresh grease is FAR better than the lack of grease in the u joints stock or typical time people let them go between greasing.

    My joints get greased every 5k when i do oil.

    It's NGLI no. 2, which is what Spicer specifies for their u-joints, and a semi-synthetic like that will work just fine. It's not like the cost difference is going to kill you either, it took me four years to empty a tube of Shell SRS2000 into my 5 u-joints, and that's greasing them every 5,000km (3000 miles) at OCI's, and usually at least one greasing in between OCI's, sometimes two.
