Welcome sir chappy!

I don't know why Honda tells people to put that heavy gear oil in the final drive. Not the first time we've seen this. You would think the guerrilla's might read the service manual. I will link you to SM when you have more posts (sorry it's a forum thing). For now here are your recommended fluids for your bike and the owners manual in case you didn't get one from the gorillas. Thank you for putting your year in the profile, please add your location as who's knows if you can even access Amazon :D

coolant ---> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0039 ... UTF8&psc=1

motor oil 10W40---> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0039 ... UTF8&psc=1

final drive 10W30---> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0039 ... UTF8&psc=1

Oops.. you are talking in kilometers so I hope the items shown can be found in your country. Chicago here RA! RA! go Bears! The little Honda like fluids with Moly in them per the service manual but I know some of you can't get this additive in your countries. Remind me to shoot you the service manual after you post a few more times. You could put up some pictures... we like pictures of scooters 8)

No problem 8) SM will come to you in private message only... forum rules. You just need to be able to read PM's by meeting a minimum post count.

Maybe you need to resize? Use Microsoft Paint or whatever (I use Pixresizer) to make it small enough. Search the forum for "resize picture" and you will be deluged with advice.

You must have a minimum of 10 characters typed in the text block to attach an image. Sometimes I just go like this .........

A clue is RED text after you try to post that explains what the boggle is like 'image too large' or 'minimum text needed'

Hi chappy99, welcome to our forum(s) :P

Don't get discouraged, many of us (esp as new members), struggle with posting photo's. There are several ways to place them here. One way is to use a program such as this:
http://resizepic.com
Give it a try. If you two get along :D save it for quick access - ex. to your desktop

Photo size rules:

Avatar's: 120W x 120H

Photo's to placed in a post: No bigger than 1920W x 1080H (and as many as you wish)
Forum owner maddiedog recommends keeping Photo's 1024 x 768 and under to ensure they fit most screens (this will alleviate the need to scroll side to side viewing them)


I'll toss this in.....a quick Avatar program (save this too if you like):
http://www.shrinkpictures.com/create-avatar/

---> Remember folks, you can quick reference a topic again, by clicking the Bookmark Topic button above. Afterwards you can go to the control panel > manage bookmark's and find your topic there without searching the forum's.

And....you can print any page(s) from a thread (button found above) or print from your bookmarked threads. JUST MAKE SURE YOU ARE LOGGED ON FIRST!!

Ain't We COOL? We Rock! 8)
