tranny fluid

[samdust]

hey guys i havent changed my tranny fluid in ummmm idk. never! ive had my shee a while i dont ride it that much but i ride it. my question is if i change out my fluid 1. how much do i buy i got 1 liter but i dont know if that enough. and 2. will it mess up my clutch? u know if u run ur tranny hard in ur truck for a long time then u change the fluid the detergents make the plates slip cause they are used to working off the bad fluid. point is if i change it will my clutch go out.i got the wet clutch stuff its in a purple bottle and maxima makes it i think.

it takes about 1 and a half quarts, and no you should be fine as long as you are putting a good name brand wet clutch style oil.

I run maxima mtl 80w in my play bike and it works great!!

i think the exact recommended amount is 1.6 qts...should be stamped on the side of the case near the fill hole...i like the honda hp oil in the red bottle...80/85 weight...was recommended by jeff at F.A.S.T. ....dbr

changing the fluid in an automatic transmission does not make them slip and go out, it's not changing the fluid until it's too late and already ruined that makes them go out.

I use the honda hp in the red bottle just because it has a pointed "top" that doesnt require me to have a funnel. There's also a marker on the side of the bottle.

 

As for much to use, it's stamped by the dip stick and specified in you Clymer which every banshee owner should have.
