Fluids, Sealants, Chemicals

Post by toratora » Fri Nov 10, 2017 3:39 am

For the transmission I generally run the Motul Transoil. There are two versions. Either is fine. I usually get the one that's a couple of dollars more.

The Euro2 engine takes about 650ml. The 3 is probably pretty close to the same.

For coolant I've been running the PDI coolant made for mini race bikes.

For the brakes I also run Motul.

For pre-mix the Motul 800 is great—there is a road race version formulated for high RPMs if you can find it. If you live in a warm climate you can run this with injectors, but if you live where it gets could it's probably better to run 710 or something made for injectors. I will also run Redline, or Castrol. Basically any good oil is fine with these bikes. One year it actually got cold around here, and so I sourced a case of snowmobile oil. :)

Sealants: Copper Coat

Copper Coat
To seal exhaust ports the copper coat sealants seem to work the best. It's available in a spray, tube, and a can. I prefer the can version because it comes with a brush, and it tends to last longer than sealants I've used from tubes.
