Hi - I've been following various posts here on chaincase leaks and ATF - our hosts recommend using Dextron ATF in Bullet chaincases, but does this go for twins as well?
Clutch warnings are mentioned - "bronze" (no explanation why or which clutches are "bronze") and slip problems when using ATF with "friction modifiers" - so do I assume Dextron hasn't got any??
As to sealants, I've also been following the Velocette forum and various horror stories about wandering silicone causing serious lube problems - Wellseal (as sold by our hosts) seems to be the favoured choice - I would guess that any excess ending up in the chaincase stays there anyway? Any experience/tips out there please?
My bike has oil in there at the moment, and leaks - only slightly, but I would like to cure it as oddly, there aren't any others!
New gaskets and washers at the ready - advice on sealant and contents welcome . . . . .
