transmission vent?

<< < (3/3)

Ultratoad:
Yeah, for our purposes a Liter and a Quart are close enough-- 1 Liter = 1.06 Quarts.

I agree with siai47 about oil changes.  I warm the tranny with a good 20 minute ride to warm and thin the oil for improved removal.  I put the bike in a wheel chock (upright), drain the oil well, replace a clean plug with a new crush washer, fill tranny via the vent, 1QT of Amsoil Metric SAE 10W-30 (wet clutch compatible) as recommended by Brammo.  This oil yields a smoother operating transmission.  I have measured the removed oil several times-- always yields 1 QT.  So, I never both to remove the overflow plug either....
