Default Oil for 360

Hey local buddy--come to think of it, I hit 100 hrs last week (belt light came on) and I put in Mobil 1 5 w 40 (i think) its the gallon jug at wal mart with the red cap, and although I have been doing some experimenting with my jets, I must say this is the best my quad has run yet. Although I dont know how much of a difference the oil made--You should also pick up an oil filter at wal mart--Its called a Super Tech ST7317 and it is only $2.00---I have had very good luck so far with them. While your at it---put that Mobil 1 in your front differential also--I am going to do it but it looks like i have to remove my Richochet skid plate to get to drain hole---that will have to wait for a rainy day

And 1 other thing my brake fluid is low what do u suggest for that? Whats the top speed on yours? And how much was the speedometer? I get paid wed. Should I get it or a cell phone? LOL Like you woyuld know if i should get a cell. I am only 15 i will be 16 in aug.

Hey Bud--top speed is relative to the situation--Uphill??downhill?? Flat--The 360 is not very fast but i know i was kissin 50 mph one time going down a pretty good grade---i am not sure what it is on the level

Mobil 1 is synthetic oil

not sure what to tell you about the brake fluid--i never had to touch mine yet

and i think i would rather have a cell phone than the speedometer but then again you only pay for the speedo one time compared to every month for the phone

speedo cost $100 and was a very ez install

Check your front brake pads. My 360 was extremely low when I bought it and I just filled it up to the top. Come to find out the pads were completely shot and it made a nice mess when we changed the pads. Nice thing about it was the dealer hooked me up with a set of pads for free even though the machine was used when we bought it.

For the rear brakes you need to use Mobil 424 I belive or Kawasaki wet brake fluid 1 quart will do as you should have about 3 or 4 shots left in the bottle. If you're brakes feel sluggish this needs to be changed.
