Primary fluid: Viscosity equivs: 5w30,10w30,10w40. UN-friction modified good quality mineral oil. For e.g. Mobil 1 Agri Super (10w30) or Shell Donax TF. ATF fluid is fine try get Dexron II or type F if u can.
Transmission fluid: 80w90 GL-1 (20w 50 mineral/synth. oil for 5 speed) or GL-5 ( for 6 speed) gear oil.
For e.g. Shell Spirax A (GL-5) or Synthetic UN-friction modified engine oil. Viscosity- (15w50),(20w 50), (25w 60) For e.g. Penrite SIN 25 (GL-1).
Engine Oil: Ones that work: Penrite HPR Gas. Penrite SIN 25. Valvoline 4-Stroke M.Cycle Oil 15w 50. Penrite Enduro. Mobil 1 V-Twin. Shell Advance 4T 20w50. Castrol Activ 4T 15w50. Pennzoil Motorcycle oil 20w 50. Revtech Motorcycle oil 20w 50. H-D 360. HPR Diesel 20w60. BP Corse 25w 60.
15w40 diesel oil. For e.g. Caltex Delo 400 MG or Rimula X (for winter use or blended in to mix) (!Becareful if high mileage bike and switching as it can unclog all the crap in engine!). (CF-4/CG-4/CI-4/CI-4 plus).
Most likely these oil will work as well (I haven't tested them): Castrol Edge 25w 50. SIN 15 . Amsoil 100% SYN P.M.O 20w 50 (CI-4). Revtech Syn. MTP 20w 50. Penrite Everyday driving 20w50 & 15w40.
If your bikes burning oil:
Penrite Enduro or SIN 25 if u have always used synth.
Steering head bearing grease: -30 to 150. or -35 to 175C temp. range. For e.g. Castrol APX T. Lower than -30 the better. Look for Lithium grease or molybedum added.
Chain lube: Wheel bearing grease with molybedum disulphide in it. It won't fly off the chain and it has polymers in it. (Keep sand/dirt away from chain).
Cable lube: Mineral oil/ graphite mix (3:1) 1-2ML.
Air filter lube: Mineral oil. Spray it on gauze if K&N filter with plant sprayer. Dry with hairdryer.
If you live out a bit and need bulk oils there's these website i've seen: Simply-online.com.au. & seemore.com.au.
