jamienash1985 Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 So I had my clutch side apart due to no shifting. It sat dry for a couple days till I had time to fix it. Didn't have any belray so I just put 80w90 gear oil in so it didn't stay dry. Is that Ok to do if I'm not running the bike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil Doobie420 Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 Its never good to switch oils. I always stick with 10_30 or type f tranny fluid. Think about ot it soakes into the clutches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98_sheester Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 I use 20 50 motorcycle oil since its made for wet clutchs but if you use the type f fluid and ride hard it glazes clutch plates if not changed offen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil Doobie420 Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 I think the atf grabs harder. But yea u do have to change it more often. Better for play\drag bikes imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoppedupandcutdown Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 Why you no like Rotella? Sounds like a cheese, con carne, salsa type dip Mixed with Nutella. That why Although, from what I've researched it does sound like quality stuff for many applications. Motorcycle especially,(and diesels) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burke Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 It is JASO approved... Awesome oil, and it can be had for ~$12/gal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppedupandcutdown Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 It is JASO approved... Awesome oil, and it can be had for ~$12/gal But tastes terrible on a tortilla chip. Which exact oil do you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil Doobie420 Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 What im sayin is why not get the same shit ur gonna run. I dont think its a good idea to let the clutchs soak up 80-90 then run somthing diffrent. Same withe two stroke oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burke Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 I use Rotella in the clutch side, and ran it in both sides of my Hondas, and I use it in my truck and Jeep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
