[QUOTE="dthoms, post: 549938, member: 35596"] I have to agree with Bill Hibbs on this one. You people crack me up. it sounds like some people have more passion over saving a buck then riding off-road bikes. ATF would be OK if your gear box was nothing more than a series of clutches, but it is not is it. I work on printing euipment and there is alot of oils and lubricants for different systems whether it is a press or a high volume pump or a high pressure pump or even from one press to another the lubricants are different and they have different properties, one will not work well in the place of another period. In machines that run day in and day out you can not put hydrolic oils in place of gear oils and expect them to last, they won't that is a fact There is a lot of MX junkies that only ride a bike for a year or two and they could probaly get away with running on piss and castrol oil for a year or two of track riding. But I would suggest if want your machine to last and operate at it's best you use the recommended lubircants. I know people that think ATF is a lube-all works great in the tranny, shocks, forks, chain whatever... I strongly disagree. Most ATF oil are just cheap hydrolic oils with cheap additives. That being said no oil makes up for lack of maintenance, or improperly set up machines, motorcycle, presses or otherwise. [/QUOTE]
