Ok gentlemen, maybe my brain is functioning properly today, it is Sunday, lol.

I just switched out my outer primary chaincase cover as it had some scratches on in. I am all ready to put the lubricant in. I ended up going with Amsoil Synthetic Motorcycle Oil 20 - 50. I was considering running a ATF but while I was in the store I decided to go with this as it lists it under uses. I will do some more reading before it is time to change it out, unless I have problems, and maybe go to the Amsoil Synthetic ATF next change, or maybe B & M Trick Shift.

Anyways, my question is, what is considered wet and dry for capacities? I removed the primary cover as I mentioned so I would consider it dry before adding lubricant, but nothing of any amount came out after I drained it so what would wet be?

The service manual calls for 32 oz (0.95L) wet and 40 oz (1.18L) dry. I don't want to put in too much or two little which may affect performance and cause me to make a misguided opinion of the Amsoil and its performance.

Thanks in advance.

 

My take on it is that if you drained your primary in the normal manner you'd drain the same amount of fluid you'd get if you pulled the primary cover off.

So......unless you take the clutch pack apart I'd say you're doing a wet fill.

 

run it drive it and change the oil after 50 miles and use the 32 oz. that will also let you inspect for leaks.
