Motorcycle Fluids

Engine and Drive Train Maintenance

If you have a new motorcycle make sure you follow all of the manufacturers maintenance recommendations, this is a must. What is always a good idea is to keep a log of all fluid changes, repairs, miles, dates, etc. This way you’ll know exactly when you did something vs trying to remember.

Motorcycle Fluids
If your motorcycle is under warranty the best advice we can give you in terms of motorcycle fluids is to use whatever the motorcycle manufacturer recommends, which is probably going to be their own product. Which is fine, probably cost a bit more, but if something was to happen while under warranty they have nothing to argue with you about. Buy your fluids from your local dealer so they get to know you. This is important to follow while your motorcycle is under warranty. Once off of warranty use your own mind and use what you feel comfortable with. We’re not recommending using automotive oil or things. Use products designed for motorcycle use.
