Amsoil 0W-40 ATV Oil and Amsoil Severe Gear 75W-90 for the diff's.
It's nice to only have to use one brand of oil

i use amsoil 10w-40 synthetic in the engine and i use 75w-140 synthetic in my diffs.
YES amsoil 0w40 for the engine makes it shift awsome and Honda does make a 80w90 gear oil part # CA66928 and i use that .
where can i get the amsoil brand from? we have walmart, autozone, orielly auto, advanced auto...those are the only auto parts places in my town other than the honda shop or yamaha shop
honda does make 80w 90 gear oil for the diffs, if you cant get it at a honda bike shop try going to the nearest honda car dealership. its called hypoid gear oil, thats what i just put into mine too
alrite next question...anyone have any idea how much oil goes into the engine and how much into the diffs...i bought this bike used and havent gotten a manual for it yet
rear diff 2.5oz, front 6.3 oz, and engine oil 2.5 quarts
next complete retarded question, i lost my glasses and cant find the oil filter, wont be till tuesday till i can get another pair of glasses...anyone point a brother to where it is or take a picture of it
if u look by ur rear brake pedal there s black cover take it off and there is 3 8mm bolts take them out
welp i found it, needless to say i didnt expect it to launch oil out into my lap, i just started taking this off until i hit it, got the oil in the engine and oil in the diffs...sounds like its running better though
