Do you thing it will do the job properly ?

You'll find that there are many answers to your question. Any good quality gear oil should be fine. Some even change it sooner than the recommended interval.

Any good quality dinosaur or synthetic oil is fine IMO. If you are one of those people ( with a tendancy like me) that feels better by paying more for a particular designer oil then go get the one with the price tag that suites your needs.

But as MM says it is more important to change it often than what you actually use.

Are you guys implying that the special Yamaha Whale **** FJR-specific rear end lube isn't made of a super secret formula developed using technology derived from the Alien spaceship in Area 51!?!?!?!!?????

Heretics!

(Personally, I use Mobil 1 Gear lube)
