i have seen everything from type f, to dexron, to 75w90, 80w, 10w30, 15w40, 20w50 and various gear oils designed for 2 strokes etc etc. almost everything has been tried in a banshee with sucess.

 

it probably doesn't matter what you use. but just for reference, the official word from yamaha is to use a 10w30 api rated oil of se, sf, sg or higher as long as it does not say "enegry conserving II" that is quoted right out of the factory manual sitting on my lap.

I personally run Bel-Ray Gear Saver it works fine for me and its specifically made for 2-strokes and it handles the constant clutching and shifting needs of a 2-stroke, you really dont have to change it that often either.

Motorex Synthetic Gear Oil 10w30 1-Liter

 

Synthetic blend transmission gear fluid for use in all 2-stroke engines with a wet-clutch. Can also be used in 4-stroke engines with a separate transmission

This stuff is like gold. I highly recomend it if your dealer carries it.

It's been covered a gazillion times, and you'll get just as many different answers...

Oh come on Dave, you can tell everyone what kind of oil you run in your tranvestite. :biggrin:
