I run the AMsoil V-twin in motor and Spectro trans in tranny.Amsoil is from WI.:head: But I really agree changing it often is the most important thing.3 motors but no failures from oil.All cams,cranks and such were fine.

Yep,

They carry it now, probably won't have the shockproof in stock though.

I don't know about you guys I just ordered my redline right through the distributor. Kind of curious though. She said they don't discount very much, but I can't imagine if we all pooled together we couldn't get a better price than what is currently out there. I would imagine that shipping would be the issue though!:confused:

I would be willing to go in on a order for the Shockproof Trans oil.Always wanted to try that.

Well I got my redline at advanced auto, go figure, so anyways, when I bought my dale, I didnt get any mauals with it or anything, how do I go about draining the oil out of the fram and everything, also, is there actually a difference in the oil that you put directly into the tranny, and the oil that you put into the frame? I thought they all ended up in the same mix? Also does anyone know where I can download or print of the engine/electric manuals? Also, is there and oil filter on this thing? If there is, where can I get to it to change it, and what type of filter should I replace it with.

Link to Manuals

I would read darn near everything in that link about quads before you go much further. It's some important stuff.
