wobblenorbed Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 Hi Chris, I use a small funnel and a clean nossell (with the small end cut off, to aid flow )off of a silicone cartridge. Before this I used to use an ate bottle (the kind with a tube on it). Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirdabalot Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 I use one of her funnels from the cookery department. Though I usualy wait till she's gone out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webbo250 Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 Simple, buy a big syringe then squirt accurately into oil filler hole.- heh presto no spills and accurate measurement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalley250 Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 I use ATF Dexron II as recommended by Gas Gas uk and this is cheap £5.26 and has a built in funnel. Used ATF for years and never had an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toetoe Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 I use 60 ml oral syringe with 50mm of fuel pipe on the end of it and just do 50ml at a time so it's easier to keep track of the 350ml level, i'm lucky i get them for free, i use them for toping up the rad as well, dead easy and no mess.

the addict Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 I bought a few nitro fuel bottles for model cars a few years ago which come with a long thin and curved ali pipe on the top with a cap, ideal for filling for oils and coolant, and you can get them from 250cc to 1000cc. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/500cc-500ml-Nitro-Fuel-Refill-Bottle-Glow-Engine-RC-Blu-/330451471726?pt=UK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN&hash=item4cf0714d6e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 And I think h&d racing do some screw in pipes if I remember correctly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huski Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 Use an atf bottle with oil of your choice and lift the front wheel as high as possible so making the filler hole vertical I put the front wheel on my bench and put the bike in gear to stop it rolling back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_earle Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 The pull out filler tubes like they have in the 1L ATF bottles are great, Been using the same one for years. Also been using ATF for years now in many different bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 The hole is small. If nothing else pull the rubber end off the throttle cable for a make shift funnel. Also the skilled just pour the oil on a knife blade and guide it in the hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc181 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I found a clear plastic condiment squeeze bottle at the supermarket with a narrow spout, cost less than a dollar. It just happens to hold exactly 350 ml when absolutely full. The spout is small enough to fit inside the fill hole on the S3 clutch cover I bought which is actually smaller than the stock cover's fill hole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr neutron Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Just don't confuse your atf with your ketchup, Craig...... How did you get the "strike through" in your text above here??? Jimmie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 The strike occurs just trying to post. If you do not hold the curser low enough, it can hit the font size etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
