February 27, 200917 yr Finishing off a resto project... 2006 125, what oils need changed.. Engine? Gearbox? Clutch? Found out it still has the oil from its first service after run in... Where do I drain the different oils from? Which oils need done? What oils do I replace them with? Cheers, Jamie
February 27, 200917 yr Well you have to pre mix your oil with your petrol to lubricate the engine, I'm guessing/hoping you already know this. There is no separate engine oil supply. I use recommend Ipone strawberry two stroke oil. Gearbox oil, you need to remove the bottom engine screw next to the sump plate near the gear lever there should be a sticker saying oil or something next to it. Refill from the other side of the bike through the larger aluminium screw after you've put the drain screw back in of coarse, fill with 450cc of gearbox oil, I use recommend Ipone Box 2. The Clutch is lubricated by the gearbox oil, it is a hydraulic clutch though so you can change the hydraulic oil I use recommend Ipone dot 4 brake oil. Check out these Sherco Manuals they explain thing with pictures making it much easier to understand, have a look at "Sherco Setup and Lubrication Guide" for changing the gearbox oil and "Brake & clutch system bleeding manual" for changing the hydraulic oils.
