My 350 Big Bear and 250 Moto 4 were stiff to shift with steel toe work boots on. I put full synthetic motorcycle oil in them and I could shift them easily with sandals on. The differance was night and day.

I was pretty bad with my old 89 Big,Bear and 87 Moto 4. I just used any synthetic oil laying around just to make the shifting easier.

Amsoil and Mobile 1 make a full synthetic wet clutch oil, more money but easier shifting and can do much more miles before needing a oil change.

I like the looks of this stuff http://www.enhancedsyntheticoi...hevHuJYCFSPyDAodyF60Kw
