there is no tranny fluid. its all lubricated by engine oil. only the crf450's (maybe trx, idk) have seperate compartments. i have heard bad piston oilers are common, so do your top end often.

ah yea, kinda figured it out today. Like 20oz of oil in the tank, and 10oz of oil in the case on change, oil filter, and drain bolts under skid plate.
