[QUOTE="longtime coming, post: 1262276, member: 67999"] [b]what about manufacturer?[/b] Isn't it ok to just use a quality oil of the manufacturer's specified viscosity? Or has real testing revealed that gear oils or ATF's are superior? I've always been under the impression that good quality oil when changed regularly will give good protection. Would the manufacturers not recommend the proper oil? I don't know. Will some oils protect the transmission better than the clutch? Will some oils protect the clutch better than the transmission? Will some do both? And it may be bike model/brand specific? Is this really complicated or what? And what if a refinery changes their product unbeknownst (is that a word?) to us? And how many real producers of oil (as opposed to brands) are there anyway's? Usually if the book says 10w30, I use 10w30. If it says 30w, I use 30w. Seems to work. All of these folks should get manuals and read them. I have gotten manuals on e-*** for an '82kdx80, an old round baler,etc,etc,etc. By the way, I really enjoy reading this stuff. There is an incredible wealth of info in this forum, although sometimes hard to find something read a long time ago. I need to improve my search techniques.
