barfy Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 The book recommends 900cc of oil. However, there should be a small oil check bolt just in front of the kick start. Remove this and fill until it begins to flow out of the hole. I think that you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

not ron Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 I have been using my TLR250 for about 15 years and have experimented with many clutch arrangments, including a partial attempt to convert to hydraulic based on 4RT parts. My optimum specification is Barnett Kevlar plates, CB125 anti-rattle kit in place of the outside steel plate, motorcycle specific semi synthetic engine oil designed for wet clutch, and a spacer behind the bearing in the outer casing to optimise the actuation point of the cam. I hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basinbaker2 Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 Hey not Ron, Would like to know how thick the spacer was that you put under the bearing to adjust the bite point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
