Sorry to bring up the dreaded subject of oil, I'm a bit confused as to which oil to use where in my 1100 Breva.

I take it the Agip Racing 4T can be replaced with fully synthetic equivalent. Whats the recomendation for Gearbox & Carc, my old guzzi's use the same oil in each. been trawling the net but not finding any sense yet.

I`ve put a quality synthetic in both the carc and box, same oil in both. It doesn`t break down as quick as mineral stuff, and 1 litre is sufficient for both, so change it often.

I prefer Redline Shockproof in the gearbox and CARC.

I have heard that the newer Guzzis do better with 10/60w but I run 20/50w.

Brands are a touchy subject but I suggest either bike oil or diesel oil, no car oil.

The same formule as for the V11:

gear: 75/140

engine: mobil1 5w-50 100% synthetic

CARC: 75/90

 

dunno exately is the oil for the CARC and for the gear is the synthetic one.

Anyway the gear oil is a Castrol one. and the CARC Motul.

Any type in particular?

 

I take it you also have / had a Norton?

redline shockproof in g/box and carc if you can get it. But even silkolene will do.

And yes, I do have a `73 commando 850 interstate.
