Kymco gear oil
« on: January 31, 2012, 03:09:08 AM »
I got the Kymco gear oil from Taiwan. It comes in a tube kind of like a tooth paste just not as long. It really helps on changing the gear oil where you don't have to worry about the measurement. All you have to do is cut the tip off and squeeze the whole tube. Wonder if you can fine the same thing in US.

I'm i the US. Got it last time I went to Taiwan. They have gear oil in different size tube. One in the picture is 180CC. I know it's not the same displacement as the user manual said but Kymco only sell it in 110 and 180 cc. I figure you won't go wrong with OEM stuff.

That's how it is done on an outboard motor.

I use 85w 90 hypoid gear oil on all my 4 scooters.  Works great.  I flushed it at 500, then every 2-3K.

I have always used Mobil 1 75W-90 synthetic gear oil. The only problem I ever had was in my '83 Honda 650 Nighthawk it would foam and leak out the overflow in cold weather. However I think that bike would do that with any gear oil.
