I couldn't find a dealer that stocks the Yamaha rear drive fluid. They all recommend the Honda fluid used for the Gold Wing. Do you think the Honda fluid will be OK for the FJR?
Seem to recall from the old site that someone quoted a Yamaha tech as saying their lube was recommended for 'sustained high speed running'. I think this meant 100 mph+ continuous for long periods. How often do any of us do that in the real world.Andydownunder said:The "special" FJR final drive oil is apparently formulated to foam less. So whether this is because the FJR is capable of higher speed than a lot of shafted biked or if FJR riders are the ones being shafted ...
Lots of threads about this on the previous site by people with more experience and clues than I.
:lol: :lol: Just think what would happen if someone were to use BMW oil, or much worst Harley oil? We might have a nuclear melt down! :shock:20valves said:Of course the Honda products will explode if used in a Yamaha.
