    I started off using the Cobra clutch milk but had some issues,so I switched to ATF fluid. I ran 12oz and changed it after every moto and it worked great. It is also MUCH cheaper than the Cobra stuff.

    12 oz of Amsoil Supershift ATF worked great for us!

    The manual says 8oz, but 12 works great. It just seams to keep the clutch alot cooler for a moto. I also would suggest chamging the fluid after every moto. Good Luck!

    8oz didn't work for us. Our clutches would get hot and fail. I tested different types of fluids and different amounts from 8-16oz and had the best results with 12oz of regular ATF fluid. It's cheap enough that you can change it after every ride. You should also invest in a couple extra sets of washer stacks and change them every couple of races.Be sure to tell your rider not to blurp the throttle too much and don't try to run your gearing to high and you should be ok.
