Front and rear differential oils?

[kamakazie]

Hi all,

Coming up on the one year mark owning my 2005 BF 750 and I am getting ready to change the front and rear diff oil. What oil's do you recommend? I just picked up some Kawasaki oil. Is it any good?

Thanks

Well I'm pondering the same thing but I used to be an Amsoil dealer, just never sold any. Kinda dumb huh. But I run it in my Duramax and GTO so that's what I'll run in mine when I get back. I might order some and have it shipped home along with some filters. Amsoil makes a rearend lube for this type of brake/differential setup but not sure what it's called now. I guess I should check it out. Can't wait to go riding and wish I was there now. UT and CO are gonna enjoy my cash I reckon.

Just an idea on this oil. Make sure your engine has reached 20 hours or so. Maybe 10 would be good but you want to make sure your rings are seated first. Other than that I can't think of another reason not to convert it now.
