[QUOTE="BRush, post: 703364, member: 18729"] To expand upon the quote that CC referenced above: It would be interesting to see how the friction coefficient of normal motor oil or gear oil would compare. The key thing to glean from this is that for some clamping pressure “X” , the same clutch will slip sooner using Dexron/Mercon ATF, than it will using Type F. Here’s my take on the whole thing: Since for most “normal” dirtbike uses, both of these ATF’s are going to provide your gearbox with adequate lubrication then the question of which to use comes down to how it works in your bike. Getting smoother shifts and no clutch slipping with Dexron/Mercon?. Then hey, stick with it. If you notice clutch slippage on a long uphill when the bike is hot, then that should tell you something. If you can’t tell the difference, stay with Type F since you never know when the higher static coefficient will work to your advantage. [/QUOTE]
