[Honda-C70] Re: Ok I embarrassed to ask, but I know nothing about motorcycles....

 

I've been using Shell Rotella T 10w40 i think. It's in the yellow bottle. It's a diesel oil and as such doesn't have what are called friction modifiers, which reportedly reek havoc on motorcycle systems. It's cheaper than MC specific oils and can be found most anywhere. I plan to switch to MC oil later on but for the first few changes after sitting Rotella is good for me.

I know enought to pull the drain plug and clean the screen. Also there is a fill hole about the shifter?? What type of fluid goes in there. I cant see anything in there now. Please dont make fun of me, I warned you I know nothing about it..?? ..
