Synthetic Transmission Oil
« on: August 06, 2023, 11:50:49 AM »
I'm wondering if anyone else has replaced their transmission oil with synthetic. I was sort of surprised by the increased drivability after doing so. I have to admit that I never checked it before I did my 200m service. I'm not sure there was as much in there as I ended up using to fill to the top hole.  The machine is definitely smoother. The RNG clutch kit was a huge improvement but I'm sort of wishing I had done the transmission first and then the clutch. I also found that driving in 2wd is much smoother than 4wd. I'm also not 100% sold on the factory belt.  I'm starting to think that the so-called 'throttle problems' particularly with the 2022 and 2023 models may be a combination of things not necessarily the throttle. Don't get me wrong, I still think electronic throttle at least CFMOTO's implementation, on a trail machine is not good.

I changed mine to Synthetic and it was also low if you go by the service manual on how to check it. was a huge improvement!
