Thanks Does anyone know the recommended amount of oil to use...?

The book recommends 900cc of oil. However, there should be a small oil check bolt just in front of the kick start. Remove this and fill until it begins to flow out of the hole.

hi i find using fully sinthetic oil in the rtl makes the clutch slip stan

I have been using my TLR250 for about 15 years and have experimented with many clutch arrangments, including a partial attempt to convert to hydraulic based on 4RT parts. My optimum specification is Barnett Kevlar plates, CB125 anti-rattle kit in place of the outside steel plate, motorcycle specific semi synthetic engine oil designed for wet clutch, and a spacer behind the bearing in the outer casing to optimise the actuation point of the cam.

I hope this helps.

Hey not Ron, Would like to know how thick the spacer was that you put under the bearing to adjust the bite point?
