I stillneed to do my first oil change..What oil should i buy?? and i also need to change the brake and clutch fluids... I need some insight as to what fluids to buy.. PLease reply

 

Not sure for brake and clutch fluid, recently did my oil change, picked this up at my nearby dealer, washer, 10W-30 full synthetic HP4 and filter, also,dont forget to purchase the tool to remove the filter if you dont have one already. pretty easy job, painless and quick, but for oil I recomend, Repsol 10w-50 its a better buy. I dont know why I went with the Honda's HP4 10/30 not worth it.....go repsol.

 

hp 4 is semi synthetic- honda just came out with a full syntheticsp4 i believe-phil

 

for brake and clutch standard automotive DOT 4 will be fine.

pretty much any oil that does not contain moly will be fine. Repsol 4T racing full synth contains less moly that honda oem GN4 dino oil btw.

 

Just out of curiosity. . why do you feel the need to change the brade and clutch fluids?

 

oh, and +1 to the Repsol 10w50. . it is what Iused for the firstand I belive that it's worth the money. I think I have about 1400 miles on my bike now. Didn't notice any difference with the repsol, but it's piece of mind.

 

i was curious about that too i just didnt want to get involved any more than i did.

just in case the clutch fluid is supposed to be black. it happens. you cant stop it

 

i run ams oil. and always run ams oil, and in all my previous bikes.

oil chance + new filter, then 3000 miles later ichange the filter. 3000 more miles and a fresh oil change and new filter.

 

after the engine is good and broken in you really dont need to change the oil that often
it has been proven that even after 5K miles an engine with repsol in it was still protected just as well as when the oil was first put in.

i know its cheap insurance but amsoil is pricey (although a damn good oil)

yup, 8.00 or a bit less a quart.
