TRANSMISSION OIL, WHAT TO USE AND WHAT NOT. IAM HAVING INTERMITTNET PROBLEM WITH REV. GOT REV LIGHT, SOMETIMES REV WORKS , OTHER TIMES NO. NO CLANKING, NO METAL,CAN GET OFF BIKE AND PUSH BACK WHILE IN REV AND WILL SOMETIMES GO. CONFUSING?

 

Your reverse shifter may need to be adjusted so that it gets fully into reverse. There are some adjusting nuts on the linkage. Does it go in reverse if you push really hard on the shifter?

 

I GUESS I NEED TO REMOVE THE LINKAGE GOING TO THE SHIFT LEVER ON THE TOP OF TRANS AND MANUALLY PUT IT IN GEAR TO SEE IF THE LINKAGE IS OUT OF ADJ. I THOUGHT MAYBE IT MIGHT BE A FLUID PROBLEM, BUT MOST LIKELY A MECHANICAL. I DO NOT KNOW HOW THESE TRANS WORK, LIKE A CAR WITH FLUID OR IS ONLY THE FLIUD FOR LUBE AND COOLING,? OR IS ALL MECHANICAL?

 

I don't think there is any fluid in there, the setup is a lot like a snowmobile's.

 

THE REPAIR MANUAL CALLS OUT FOR 10W 30 OIL 16 OZ AND THATS WHATS IN IT NOW
