wingandaprayer Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Hi, pour 80ml of oil into a measuring jug, then pour that into a can of fuel with 5litres of super unleaded, shake it up a bit and pour into bike. You can use either a light gear oil or atf in your gear box. Good luck with your new bike. p.s. make sure you use a fully synthetic oil like castrol tts or similar. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobbster Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Hi As Adam1 said...Castrol TTS is great (i run at 75mls to 5 ltrs of super unleaded) A good gear oil like putoline GP10 should be more than good enough. Some info below....Cheers http://www.betatrialuk.com/content/view/50/51/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam1 Posted December 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Thanks for the quick response chaps, i have been reccomended PJ1 fully synthetic as this is what the local bike shop sells is this any good. Also can anyone reccomend a good quality grafix kit too! chers Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzralphy Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Hi adam Use the ATF II in the gear box and change it often - say every 10 trials events - it is cheap enough and works really well in the Beta's. If you are keen do the clutch modification at the top of the Beta forum. I used to use fully synthetic 2 stroke oil at 70:1 - Hunt out the Putoline Trials it is good stuff.

cabby Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Use the ATF II in the gear box and change it often - say every 10 trials events Every ten trials I change my oil every 3 trials, am I over doing it then ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grindrod Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) For gearbox oil I would ask Steve Saunders, there is a good oil (I cant remember the brand) that he recommends if you have a bit of a sticky clutch. I would inspect the oil in the level window ) if your bike has one, it is easy to spot if it has changed colour or looks contaminated, on my 200 I once changed it after only 2 trials that were very wet as it looked slightly milky.
