fox889 Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 '84 242 with 304 clutch & gearbox, oil looks nice & red but the time will come when I need to change it.....so....what's the consensus of opinion? ATF [Motul ATF V1] ATF in general [any favourites?] 10w30 light gear oil [again, any favourites?] ELF HTX 740 Mineral.......semi-synthetic..........fully synthetic? Appreciate any thoughts & views on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnesy Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 I've just changed mine as the bikes new to me wasn't sure what was in it before but I put in Motul Transoil 10w-30 Mineral Motorcycle Gearbox oil. And the gear selection is a lot better, used to struggle a bit downshifting before. Cheers B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fox889 Posted March 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Appreciate your response, I had got Transoil on my list funnily enough & that maybe what I go for. The bike is new to me as well, very well looked after but I like to start with a clean slate & put my own oil(s) in. I’ll look into Facebook thanks Nigel.
