May 9, 201214 yr Hi all, newbie here and just bought my very first trials bike. I will have lots of stupid question so please bear with me!! Bike has been sitting for a while, only used 4 times in last 2 years so I am planning on replacing brake fluid, clutch, and gear box oil. I am unsure if the bike is 06 or 07 as the previous owner said it was an 06 but the manual it came with is an 07? Anyway I can tell and are they pretty much the same? What Gearbox oil should i be running as i can't seem to find the one stated in the manual online.. Anything else you guys would recommend me doing? All help and pointers appreciated! Cheers, Jim

May 9, 201214 yr I use the expensive but long lasting Putoline Nano trans gear box oil. 500ml each time Edited May 9, 201214 yr by pindie
May 9, 201214 yr Author That is expensive gear.. Any other suggestions on gear oil? Is it ok to use dot5.1 brake/clutch fluid as i have some spare, higher bp if if i remember?
May 10, 201214 yr I think most would recommend a Putoline or similar brand 'Light gear Oil' 75W. http://trialstribulations.net/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1506
