So guys, I dont quite fancy paying £9 every two weeks for gearbox oil, which is required when you buy it by the litre and train every day, so what do you all use?
I was using Putoline Atf but not cheap!

So what do you all use?
Try to use the template below, just to make it a bit easier for me to work out.

Doesnt have to be bike specific, car stuff will do, anything.

brackets are examples, remove completely.

Make/Brand: (Putoline)
Type: (Light gear oil)
Spec: (Dexron 1/2/3/4) (10-40) (75wt)
Price: (£9 per litre)
Available by the gallon: (yes/no)
Retailer: (motomerlin)

Comments: (gives smooth action of the clutch blablabla)


Thanks :rotfl:

Make/Brand: Texaco
Type: semi synth
Spec: 5W30
Price: £12/ 5l (mates rates!)
Available by the gallon: yes
Retailer: Texaco retailers

I like it better than ATF, slightly softer clutch and I feel that it's better for the bearings but have no scientific basis for this.
