Got this thing going, Fixed the gauge housing, all the little brackets, changed the bars, headlight, and I must say Im impressed! Possibly the funnest bike overall, I ever rode. This carries more weight against all the bikes Ive sold and at least owned thru my shop. Im just listing these to give perspective. Current stable? 1198sp Ducati,[ Ive fixed and rebuilt for myself, every superbike in their evolution since the 851 back in 92] 1000RSV4 Aprilia ,Tuono 1000 Vtwin Aprilia, 250 2 stroke Aprilia, MV Agusta F4, 81 Guzzi Lemans 2 Euro , 89Llemans 5. I could go on, but you prob get what Im saying. The Duc breathes fire and sounds like god clearing his throat. Yet this Brammo is MORE FUN! I still have a variety of 25 bikes left for sale here, and havent ridden any of them since I got this going a week ago. I love the quiet whirring, and how surreal it feels. The handling is the most fun attribute, on our western Pa snakey roads. I can hear the tires squealing at their limit as I shred the chicken strips off the edges. [It really needs softer compound ones] Never heard that sweet sound on a dead dinosaur burner before. It feels way lighter in the bends than when sitting on it, because of all the gyroscopic forces not present in a small electric motor without flywheels, cranks, rods etc. I was very ,very surprised. Im hooked, having a hard time contemplating selling this one, but I need another bike like a hole in the head. Question? I was told here , I should change the trans fluid, with 2k on it. My friend works at a polaris dealer and has no info on what it takes, just listing 5w-30 in his info. Is it some weird clutch compatible special stuff, or will any good synthetic work? What are you guys using?
