OK Thomez!tongue.gif I like red line lightweight shock proof or if you cant get that, a non hypoid 80w synthetic gear oil from the local parts store

I was just saying that not all 10W-30 oils are going to have friction modifiers or cause damage to the clutch. Many people run Mobil 1 with no problems, etc. (though the red cap is 20W50 I believe).

Here on the east side of the union we have these things called trees and this wet stuff called mud. We also have this other crazy white stuff that falls from the sky. In those conditions, the Yamaha is a much better ride than the Cannondale. smile.gif
