[QUOTE="Masterphil, post: 1049257, member: 55234"] I'm not going to answer your question, but I'll say this: Choosing a transmission fluid for a 2T bike is a personal choice that depends on how well the tranny feels like it shifts for you. Here is a list of things that you should probably try: Gear oil, different weights Non-energy conserving oils (I use M1 15-50) ATF Synthetic ATF There is no problem with using any of the above fluids. Just don't fall into the trap of thinking that running a more expensive oil means you can make your change intervals longer. Cheap clean oil is better than expensive dirty oil any day. I don't leave my oil in for more than a couple hours of runtime. If I go to the track, it gets fresh oil before and after, because I like to abuse my clutch and heat is the enemy of all oils. Maybe you have a bent shift fork. [/QUOTE]
