Trans case oil?? GL4 Gear oil Is Ideal. Prevents ;finding N issues' as the engine warms.

I think the TTs is called power one these days. I've used Motul Trans oil and Silkolene Light in the gearbox, both work without any issues, but the race bikes, both YPVS and TZr, do have beefed up clutches. The TZr is now on ATF which gives a light lever and no slip but I'm not sure how that would work out on a road bike doing a lot of miles, it's quite thin

I wouldn't use atf oil, as higgsy said it is thin stuff.i used it years ago in my rgv and it was quite silvery when I dropped it out to do an oil change .

Yea that would be the worry, doesn't matter on the TZR as the motors come apart regularly and the gearbox bearing changed, no noticeable wear on the bikes that have run it for a while but I wouldn't on a road bike
