Spectro 80wt tranny oil.  There are probably many opinions but that is what was used most consistantly vback in "The Day".  It was packaged as Hipoint then, though.  It was good then and still is today.  Many many Penton miles and no failures.

10-4 on the "Golden Spectro" Larry,  I've been using it for 35 years and have it in all my race bikes.  And also the ones that aren't so racey [8D]
