[QUOTE="Jaybird, post: 1049826, member: 22283"] If you try ATF, try Type F. The coefficient of friction is different with typeF than Dexron/Mercon type fluids. And ATF...ALL atf's are lubricants. They are oils just like motor oils are oils. All of the HDEO's will make for a nice smooth shift. And all if them on the shelf at WalMart are full of great additive packages, and easy on the wallet. Delo 400, RotellaT, Delvac1300 all in 15w-40 are hard to beat in either a 2T or 4T engine. The groupIII synthetics of those offerings will be 5w-40's. They will last a bit longer, but you should be changing out the fluid before that should even be an issue. Many will mix an HDEO (heavy duty engine oil) like RotellaT 15w-40 with Type F ATF to smooth the shift out a bit. If racing, I would simply use straight ATF TypeF and change out after every moto or two. [/QUOTE]
