Hi Chris, I use a small funnel and a clean nossell (with the small end cut off, to aid flow )off of a silicone cartridge. Before this I used to use an ate bottle (the kind with a tube on it).

Hope this helps.

I use one of her funnels from the cookery department. Though I usualy wait till she's gone out.

Simple, buy a big syringe then squirt accurately into oil filler hole.- heh presto no spills and accurate measurement

I use ATF Dexron II as recommended by Gas Gas uk and this is cheap £5.26 and has a built in funnel. Used ATF for years and never had an issue.

I use 60 ml oral syringe with 50mm of fuel pipe on the end of it and just do 50ml at a time so it's easier to keep track of the 350ml level, i'm lucky i get them for free, i use them for toping up the rad as well, dead easy and no mess.

I bought a few nitro fuel bottles for model cars a few years ago which come with a long thin and curved ali pipe on the top with a cap, ideal for filling for oils and coolant, and you can get them from 250cc to 1000cc.

And I think h&d racing do some screw in pipes if I remember correctly?

Use an atf bottle with oil of your choice and lift the front wheel as high as possible so making the filler hole vertical I put the front wheel on my bench and put the bike in gear to stop it rolling back

The pull out filler tubes like they have in the 1L ATF bottles are great, Been using the same one for years.

Also been using ATF for years now in many different bikes.

The hole is small. If nothing else pull the rubber end off the throttle cable for a make shift funnel. Also the skilled just pour the oil on a knife blade and guide it in the hole.

I found a clear plastic condiment squeeze bottle at the supermarket with a narrow spout, cost less than a dollar. It just happens to hold exactly 350 ml when absolutely full. The spout is small enough to fit inside the fill hole on the S3 clutch cover I bought which is actually smaller than the stock cover's fill hole.

Just don't confuse your atf with your ketchup, Craig......

How did you get the "strike through" in your text above here???

The strike occurs just trying to post. If you do not hold the curser low enough, it can hit the font size etc.
