Hey Steve,
Thats not a multigrade oil for the forks it's SAE 20, 30, 40 or 50w.
I run SAE 30w. I'm 5'10" and weigh anywhere from 195-205 lbs and I'm a pretty aggressive rider.
The Trans,
Oil capacity: 0.35 gallons (1.6 lit.)
Oil recommendation: Engine Oil SAE 20
Here in Denver CO. I could not find a bike shop that carried it, I ended up finding it at a Car Quest Auto parts store. I made the mistake of putting SAE 30w oil in the trans and i thought the clutch was slipping, I didn't think it would make that much of a difference but it does. I hope this saves you all the headaches that i got while learning the hard way. (IT SEEMS THATS HOW I LEARN EVERYTHING.....LMFAO!!!!!)
