this is the oil where the dipstick goes right ? not the premix with gas i use klotz for that but the amsoil dominator was only for premix would it be alright to put it where the dipstick thing is on the side of the clutch cover ?

I used to use Bel Ray gear oil in my Tecate. It worked great. Well, as great as gear oil could be.

I like klotz and havnt had a prob from it but i think im gunna switch over to ams oil cause its a little cheaper.

Klotz (you will need 2 of these, and use about 1.5)

Amsoil (need 2 as well)
