Default Quick help

Need a bit of advise really fast. I am changing my oil today, and while I'm at it, gonna paint a little bit more too. But There is no one around here that has all the Redline products to service my bike. What oils are recommended for which holes, or is there 1 oil that I can use for all three. I will say, this is all temporary and will only be in the bike for about 2 months, as when I leave for Korea, my grandfather will be taking care of my baby, and he is going to put all redline in her then.

Thanks guys!!!

I use syn 3 motor oil

I use primary + in the tranny and primary.

It works


there are no magic fluids which will correct a mechanical problem- however swapping up fluids over time can cause them to react and produce uneven results. ( the clutch plates are soaked in the lube, you can never get all the old lube out when changing).

I have found redline handy when tracking down a leak in the tranny...same as in a car, a different color makes easier...

that's about it.

Mike
