I changed my 2006 EC gearbox oil to a Rock 'Light' oil just after i first got it. Ive had no clutch problems at all, apart from some drag (Like all GG's suffer from what i read), so all good there and ive just purchased a couple more litres.

Some people suggested 900ml - some said to just pour the whole 1 litre in...... Which is rightly or wrongly what i did !

Ive done a couple, or perhaps three: 100 mile rides since then (Approx 15 hours riding) maximum. Should i be changing again about now, or whats the 'normal' frequency ??????

Also - has anyone experimented with LESS than 900ml of gearbox oil to try to reduce clutch drag ??? [I gather this is a very common trick with GG Trials bikes].

Cheers.
