I just borrowed my future brother-in-law's Craptor for the dunes tomorrow, and he bought it about 6 months ago used and hasn't ridden it in 3. I brought it home and checked all the fluids.... It has no coolant, extremely low oil, and hardly any brake fluid. I am not familiar with raptors, and was wondering what should I fill these up with. Is 10W30/40 oil fine, just any regular anti-freze good for aluminum engines, and regular DOT brake fluid? Nothin special?
Quick answers will help - thanks!

i cannot remember what weight i run right off the top of my head, but you can run any normal dot brake fluid, and coolant. i used engine ice until i had a coolant leak, now i have been running regular stuff.

Ok, thanks guys! If weather doesn't become a problem this will be the first time at the dunes for me with a sport quad!

Your not suppose to use any oil! Your suppose to use a motorcycle oil it has something to do with the clutch.

in the summer, i run the 5w-30 in the 450. it has a higher viscosity so it wont tihin out as much.
Look on the airbox lid, it should tell you everything.
