Transmission oil for h2b

Post by Philly »

Guys sorry for asking but I’ve done search on here AND google and getting so confused
All I need to know is
1/ how much transmission oil H2b takes ?
2/ is fully synthetic 75/90 ok ( motul)
Internet varies from 1litre to 1.3 , and past queries on here ( because I have searched before asking ) range from 30 to 75/90 Dino oil but I’ve bloody ordered fully syn now
Please can someone just give me a clear answer please

H2/A is 1.4l... H2B/C is 1.2l.
Full syn in trans is not good as it promotes clutch slip.
Dyno 75/90 would be much better.

That’s strange, my H2b states 1.4l on the clutch cover?

Thats because it's a H2C clutch cover, IIRC, nothing written on a H2 cover, H2B has KICKSTARTER only and H2C has OIL-1.4L AND KICKSTARTER

most of the H2B had already H2C clutch cover, mine H2E 33*** had already it when I got the bike and was the genuine one (italian bike).

I guess Kawasaki just introduced 'new/upgraded' stuff throughout the various models, still, good info and everyday's a school day :)
