Maxima Formula K2?

(1/5) > >>

iambigd:
I was told by a local mechanic that the Maxima Formula K2 is the best stuff around, any input on this?

Also can anyone recommend a good gear box oil for the K5 and is there a way to flush the gear box before changing the oil?

Peace

BDI:
I realy like the K2 it is an ester based oil and as far as I can tell it is the same thing as the Bel-Ray H1R just in a different bottle. as for the trans oil you should do a search on that I would recommend you use the recomended weight oil and go with a full synthetic.

BDI:
I run it in a big bore k-5 that makes big ponies that only gets ridden in the sand under nonstop full throttle conditions. I haven't had any problems with it yet But I have only been running it for one season. I started running it because it's an ester oil like stewart runs. Not to mention most of the shifter cart guys run it and seem to love it. But like I said I have only been running for one season If my engine blows up this year I'll be sure to blame it on the oil because I would hate to blame it on the engine builder because then it would be my fault. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I ride some moto and some mountain and offroad riding, and I'm a big fan of Yamalube 2R.  It keeps a motor really clean, and I've never had any engine problems with it.  That said, I doubt that subjects the bike to the kind of loads BDI is seeing on his bike, I don't know what his thoughts on Yamalube are.

BDI:
Ran yamalube for years and years with no problem loved the stuff. I only changed because I wanted to try some of the new technoligy every one was hooting about. I guess it's some kind of mid life oil crises thing I'm going through.
