4 quarts in the engine mobil v twin 32 oz in tranny redline shockproof this is for a 06 SEUC with SE 6 speed tranny it may differ for your 07. Randy

What oil do you run in the primary chaincase, Randy?

Jim

  Spec for 07  is the same  and also the primary case  is 38oz   wet fill   and 45oz  if a dry fill..   same as engine oil   or  red line   MTL   is my choice.     I use the shockproof  Heavy in the trans and it is quiet and shifts clean and easy!    Jacques,  I had much trouble shifting and finding neutral as well as  the clutch not releasing.  It  became a big problem and took lots of bleeding as well as a trip to HD  for more secret massaging. Its all fixed. but it progressivly crept in and started as a neutral fishing issue.    just my .02

Sounds like mine, Gene!  Any idea what the secret massaging involved?

Should I be looking at Red Line Heavy Shockproof Gear Oil, or Red Line Lightweight Shockproof Gear Oil, guys?

Expensive stuff here - $31.50 + shipping per quart.  How much does it cost in the US?

You want the Heavy Duty for Tranny, and MTL for Primary. I don't have receipts handy, but I'm thinking it was under $10/qt.

Hey Jim,  Before I brought it in and actually for me to drive it in, I pumped a whole pint of dot4 thru the system using the hose on nipple bottle bleeding method. There were many very fine bubbles coming up in the master. They claimed they did the same. I brought all the old fluid in to show them as it was grey/black in color. I suspect they pulled the trans cover to inspect/Message  the slave cylinder. The SM said he did see once where the slave seal cup was in backwards. no exact answer was given except that it seems to be working good.  I had to retighten the master cover screws a bit to stop the fluid from leaking  after i got it back.  It has worked good for the last 800 mi.

Thanks d00d.  Seems like even if it's expensive to ship here, it'll still be cheaper than buying locally!  Some things never change here on "Treasure Island"...

Jim,
Glad to hear that you finally got out a little.  The new six-speed is a little tricky at first finding neutral, but you'll get used to it, then it doesn't take much at all.  I always put it in neutral when I stop at a traffic light, so I got used to it really quick.  Glad you love the ride...it only gets better. 
Cheers ,

Compare that with this, d00d:  http://www.cp-components.co.uk/product_details.asp?pid=15 

multiply that price by 1.95 to get US$!

Thanks Charlie!  I'm going to SWR the short antenna this week sometime.  FM one is really poor though.....
