changing oil

[stockridinshee]

Ive heard when you change the oil to take it all out put gas in there to clean it and then empty and then put new in. But that kinda sounds weird to me, any imput on that? And what oil should i use? thanks in advance.

Well, that is a new one for me. Running gas through there might clean up some areas that could get gummed up with old oil but I'm not sure what it would do to your clutch fibers. I've been into my cases a few times and have never found anything that needed to be flushed out though.

 

I use regular old ATF and change it every other ride.

I wouldn't do that myself.

 

 

On a stock clutch, 10w30 motor oil will work just fine. Aftermarket, don't use motor oil. I'm currently running 80w BelRay Gear Saver; no complaints & smoother shifts.

never heard that one. I will flush my tranny by running a little extra oil through it while it is draining sometimes.
