[QUOTE="sr5bidder, post: 1410412, member: 98736"] most of us longtimers have settled with the cheapest ford type f we can find for the tranny oil...seems to promote frequent changes and that equals smooth shifting and zero problems..so if you want to spend $15 a quart and crindge at the thought of an oil change that is your business no fights here. I fill to the top of the sight glass when the bike is on the side stand. any grease is good as long as you do the task, the factory seems to not put alot in.. I have used the red GM grease for years but recently switched to the marine grade water proof grease, it is also apparently very resistant to soap too (yuk..so buy some rubber gloves) I have never had a 220 so I don't know if the legend is true about the piston but there sure is enough out there that I would at least pull the jug (covered earlier by reep) to take a peak. the best thing I could tell you is to buy a new air filter pre oiled and then take the old one and at your leasure clean it and oil it and stick it in a big zip-loc bag so that later down the road when it needs changed you can just pull it out and swap em, otherwize the peak under the seat check will be fogged by the thought of having take out, to clean and oil and reinstall ....and to many times you will convince yourself that it looks "OK" But when you have a filter ready to go it turns into " well hell I got the seat off, so why not" and you can stick the nasty one in the bag till your ready to mess with it. It may not sound like rocket science but it makes sense right? [/QUOTE]
