    1982 GS650G Gear oil

    Hey everyone,

    Got a gs650g which I'm rebuilding. Does the gear box required gear oil (not engine oil)? If so where exactly is the fill hole, and how do I know how much to fill it? Dip stick? Level indicator? Where is the drain hole?

    Final drive gear at the wheel is all set, just need to sort out the main gear box. Any info would be much appreciated.

    Cheers,

    Ollie.

    The transmission shares it's oil with the engine. There are two drain plugs, but only one filler hole. One under the center of the engine, one under the drive area, left rear of the engine. Remove the little cover to see it easier. There is a sight glass in the clutch cover, right side down low, to check the oil level.

    Rotella 15-40 is just fine.

      Thanks, I kept thinking that, but wanted a separate opinion. Thats a stress off the mind. back to the electrics then.

      Cheers!
