Most people on here say ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) - Type F (Ford) because it has less detergents.
I think people like harlfords stock it, but I think 10-50w will be an ok subtitute if you cant get the ATF Type F.
P.S Im in England too!

cheers for that! just bought a 250 on friday, whats the 125 like?

Compared to a 250 or a 500 s**t but it will wheelie in every gear with a bit of encouragement and keep 250f's looking back to see where you are and the 450f's on there toes :biggrin:

And yes I have had a go on a mates 500 and I about killed myself in 5th gear crossing a river and going up a steep bank at his farm.
