I did put Engine Oil in my Hero Maestro's gearbox and everything was fine for 10k kms. But then I decided to use dedicated Gear Oil and bought Servo Gear Oil SAE90 EP. It was really impossible to find any difference between the two. Only thing I noticed was that the sound coming from Gearbox was a bit lesser. Also I read somewhere that vehicles that don't require EP(Extreme Pressure) gear oils if supplied with same can ruin the rubber seals. But to be completely honest I have been using the EP gear oils for past 15k and it's doing fine.
A month ago I changed Oils in my Activa 5g.. Without my notice the mechanic put the 20W 40 in Engine and Gear box. Scooter had not a single issue till this change. I ride in traffic so it resulted in activa giving vibration while transmission. I changed the gear oil with this Castrol Gear Oil, Transmission is smoother in traffic so the scooter is running smoothly and silent.
Just done 1st service for my Jupiter 125 today, made sure to change the engine oil in my presence. For gear oil the service guy told they already did it. Will change the gear oil with some local mechanic nearby. Cannot compromise for some meagre amount with respect to life of vehicle and daily commute .
Nice to know about the dedicated gear oils. I've mostly heard of the engine oil itself doing a better job as the gear oil as well. And mostly it is the 10w40 which performs best in CVT gearbox scooters. Thanks again for the wonderful content 👍
The problem is ,even the manufacturer has no idea about which lubricant type to use .But I have seen that the gear oil that comes with the bike is more thicker and different color though Yamaha mentioned and sell gear oil recommend for their bikes and they are easy to find in conventional oil store.
I am using Yamaha's yamalube gear oil for my 2019 access which is from my findings even though the bottle is just 100ml the oil grade is 10W40, i don't feel any major differences
As well as honda's matic scooter ... From the manual book, the manufacturer recommend 10w30 for transmission oil (the same viscosity as the engine oil)
I'm now using motul gear oil GL-4 80w90 as a transmission oil for my matic honda 160 cc .... Before this, i have used 10w30 and 5w40 engine oil as gear oil. (My manufacturer recommends 10w30 for gear oil, the same viscosity as engine oil) From what i feel, the different between using engine oil 10w30 and gear oil GL-4 80w90 is in the acceleration, engine sound, and engine vibration. Using 10w30 as gear oil, the acceleration is lighter and faster .... Using GL-4 80w90 the acceleration is heavier and slower. Using 10w30 engine oil as gear oil, i can feel more vibration from the engine ... And the sounds is a little bit more louder .... Using GL-4 80w90 as gear oil, i can feel less vibration from the engine (more smooth) and the sounds frrom the engine a little bit more quiet.
The GL5 Castrol gear oil certainly made my scooters gear box quieter, compared to engine oil the gear box was running on earlier from the service center. Also i have noticed a lot more metal sludge from gearboxes that use engine oil in the gearbox rather than gear oil, specially of not changed at the right time. Gear oil seems to hold better, compared to engine oil.
In gearless scooter, the gears are always meshed in driving mode, no gear selection, shifting to hi-low gears takes place and moreover the maximum speed the vehicle runs is comparatively less, hence the metal debris produced will be very minimal. This could be one reason why manufacturer recommend to use engine oil. You can very well use gearoil as the name itself is selfexplanatory 😊😊.
Better use gear oil than engine oil. Final reduction gearbox have heavy job than engine, must be lubricated with gear oil that contain extreme presure additives.
Bro, Have you notice any issue after using Castrol Gear Oil for NToRQ? As TVS technical suggesting to use only same engine oil as gear oil as per company recommendation. How many KM you run after this gear oil change?
@@Chowhansanjay No issues till date! Gear oil is not changed after 19500km now scooter is 25000km ! And only engine oil is changed after that! Gear oil can be changed in every 10000km!
Please try motul scooter gear plus 80w90. Bcz it is technosynthese not the mineral quality oil like castrol scooter gear oil or motul scooter gear 80w90. Always loved your content.
Awesome , can you make an analysis video on fork oils 5W,10W and 15W. Being interceptor 650 owner i had upgraded to liqui molly 15w heavy fork oil but not seeing much difference from the stock, so really interested to understand on how and when it makes a real word difference.
Try to use metal treatment oil mixed with fully synthetic engine oil like 5w-40 or 10w-40... If transmission is for 120ml (90ml full sythetic engine oil 5w-40 + 30ml metal treatment oil) that will be awesome... Im doing that for 2yrs now on my scooter Honda click i change gear oil for every 1yr..and believe me u will enjoy ur scoot even more .. every morning first run no need to heat up ur scoot coz it is start and go
which one i hv Hero maestro edge ..im using motul 7100 10w40 since 2016 in both engine as well as in gear box . recently one of the bearing of my gear box got broke. mechanic replaced the same with same Castrol gear oil of 120mm operation seems silent to be honest . pls comment. i haven't changed my engine oil since 2019 may covering 7000km since.. oil quantity n colour seems perfect.
Just bcoz individually selling and keeping gear oil will boost huge cost and headache for authorise service centers manufacturers recommend using engine oil as gear oil as it cost Rs50 plus additional for 120ml of 80w90 gear oil
Sir which grease is best for scooter bike parts lubrication , gear , bearing etc Is Like Castrol / Bosch Lithium based grease is better than normal grease
Have you tried using the Motul Gear 300 75W90 on your scooter? I am curious as this gear is used on differentials and transmission gearboxes of a vehicle. Scooters used gears as well but the only difference is mostly are 80w90 and labeling always says Scooter Gear Oil.
Bro can you use Amsoil CVT fluid in TVS wego and honda activa and let us know the difference/experience. Also when we also call scooters a gearless scooter then why are we putting a gear oil like castrol 80w90 gl 5 in CVT transmission scooters.. for that i think Amsoil CVT transmission fluid or some other CVT transmission fluid will be the best choice.
I have suzuki access 125 bs4 2019 model. In service manual its written to use same engine oil as gear oil. And i change gear oil every time i change engine oil, reason - access 125 needs only 650 ml of engine oil and gearbox needs 50ml(written in manual). Engine oil can is of 800 ml....i never overfill oil....so first thing i tell my mechanice to do is drain old gearbox oil totally and fill fresh...balance whatever is left in can i use as engine oil....upto appx 700ml....
But when we use such thick grade oil for transmission performance is reduced. I tried using this grade for transmission in my scooter but performance reduced. After I switched back to 10w40 synthetic engine oil the performance is good now.
Hi! As mentioned in the video the viscosity and even density remains very similar for a SAE 80W-90 grade oil and a SAE 10W-40 grade engine oil (due to different grade systems). Yes, the additives used are different 😊
Is it okay to use shell 20w-40 oil as engine oil and gear oil of TVS Jupiter? Bcoz in owners manual they have suggested 10w-30..and am using 20w-40 will it be fine or shud I remove it plz suggest
@The Sportztourer Even i came to know to about gear oil from you only. Thankyou brother.. videos are informative and educating us. Today i opened the gear oil drain, only 20 or 25 ml drained out in black colour. will there be any damage to the gears shift? .. Now Filled with castrol 120 ml gear oil, riding is butter smooth.. Scooter : Mahindra Gusto 110cc, Make 2015
I was changing gearbox oil with every service and it damaged the threads on gear oil drain screws. An experienced mechanic said gearbox oil can last upto 10k kms without any problems.
Hi Sourabh, Yes as said in the video gear oils have got longer service life due to the additives and less harsher working environment when compared to engine oils. As per service manual TVS recommends transmission oil change every 6000km.
I use Castrol 80W90 gear oil in my Ntorq and I usually change it every 4000 kms or so. Can you please tell me what the correct change interval is for this gear oil?
Hi bro , what is oil change interval if I use 10w30 engine oil in gear box of my suzuki swish . Why suzuki company recommends 10w30 engine oil in gear box for its scooters. Is their any wear n tear occurs , does it effect gear box life. Please reply n suggest.
Hi! 10W-30 works fine and the same is used by many manufacturers. The gearbox used is a basic reduction type gear box that transfers power from the CVT. Regarding change interval, I personally prefer doing it around every alternate oil change which is around 5000-6000km.
What did u actualy test ?? U changed the gear oil and measured the fuel consumption ?? Bro u need to check the gears inside of the bike. The thing is gear oil protects better cuz the additives but on the other side we ask if the additives eats the cooper components(does our scooter have those metals inside ? ) U need to check this bro !
I got a gear oil from local shop at 40rp 125ml. It was unbranded and colour was look like diesel, blueish green and was thicker then my motul scooter engine oil
I have a question why Suzuki Access uses MA oil (specified by company) instead of MB oil (general scooter oils).. Asked this to everyone no one knows.. so am asking it here and there wherever I can ask. 😧
Hi! Which oil are you using now? How is your experience with it? If you want to go for a 10W-30 JASO MA2 synthetic then Amsoil 100% synthetic is a good performer. You can also go with Motul 10W-30: amzn.to/2zxL30R
Stick to company oil until your warranty period is over. I also bought access a year ago Recently my 4th free service done. I have chosen semi synthetic ecstar R7000 10w30 in my scooter and getting 49kmpl mileage. Scooter is running smooth.
I got my first service done of my jupiter zx intelligo last week after filling engine oil that is the jupiter tru4 skutta oil about 150 ml was left so he used that same in the gear box when i asked him why arent u using the designated gear oil he said no it doesn’t make a difference its the same thing.. What would u say about this?? Is it okay to use the same oil or should we use the proper designated gear oil
No the product hasn't been discontinued it is hard to find get gear oil from authorized dealers or parts shop or use engine oil and change every 2000 km or 6 to 12 months
@@thesportztourer yeah 😀 saw that comparo yesterday. it was fab. can you do that with this 120ml Castrol gear tube... want to check difference between their additives n modifiers. also is there any other geal oil available in 120ml tube in fully or semi synthetic
Hello sir. At present castrol gear oil is not available in my local market as well as in online. Is there any alternative gear oil which is avilable online..?
Hi sir.. I have honda activa 5g and I just got my scooty serviced. Actually I have only asked for changing engine oil but not for power oil and gear oil individually. So does it also necessary to have power oil and gear oil changed bcoz I don't have much knowledge about them.. please tell if its necessary then I would ask to change them also in next service.
Sir can I use Castrol scooter engine oil and gear oil in my yamaha scooter. Is it safe to use this engine and gear oil for yamaha scooter. If not please suggest some kind of engine oil and gear oil for yamaha scooter. Plz sir reply.
Hi Abhishek, Yes, you can use this gear oil but for engine oil Yamaha recommends 10W-40 for most of its scooters. If it is 10W-40 in your case then I would suggest you to stick with 10W-40.
10w30 JASO MB is for scooter... 20w50 would be much thick.. you must be feeling that difference when you ride. For next time chose oil specially made for scooter like the above mentioned grade..
Hi, The GT consumes 45W which is less than the stock bulb so no problem in that. If you want to stick to halogen then I would suggest you this one: amzn.to/2KpxIx2
Bro My New Pulsar 150's Rear Disk Brake Is Not As accurate In Braking as front It doesnt suddenly lock wheel And It has Only single channel ABS in front brake.. Is there any problem ?
Hi Chirag, Rear brakes are generally kept lighter in bite and progressive side when compared to the front ones. Still you can get it inspected and if required then bleeded from the authorized service.
Which grade engine oil is help us to reduced my Yamaha alpha scooter engine vibration .my thinking go to mobil 10w40 super moto scooter engine oil. This is the correct decision .pls reply to me proved and used engine oil details post.thank you.i expect your valuable reply urgent
I would suggest you to go for the recommended 10W-40 grade. You can either try the Liquimoly scooter engine oil which was reviewed here: th-cam.com/video/5uWwM1u68Yc/w-d-xo.html Or you can go for the Amsoil scooter engine oil which was mentioned in this video (yet to complete): th-cam.com/video/QuldEWhiN5E/w-d-xo.html Both these oils are available in the 10W-40 grade.

What i should do now... And is gear oil ka buy link?
Hi Anmol! What will be your plan if you sell the Jupiter? Agar apko fir se scooter hi leni hai then I would suggest go for engine rebuild. Do it from an authorized service or from an expert mechanic and things should be back to normal.
Good but not swallowable to strangers be more detailed in explaining when using tech jargons so people can actually sense and apply what u want to convey
I always use 90 grade oil for my scooter. The mechanic and show room guys always use engine oil instead of gear oil. The irony is that 95% of the users don't know there is a separate gear oil used in their scooters. The scooter manufacting companies never tell the customer s about gear oil
I wish if you could help me out on this. I have a new Pulsar 150 800km in, still in break-in but bike feels to resist going beyond 55. Bajaj says their oil has 10k km drain interval but its already unpleasant to drive. I have bought 15w50 mineral oil of Motul so when should I replace the oil?
Hi Tejas, The oil should be changed during first service. For mineral oils I would suggest 3000km drain interval for heavy use. Congratulations for the Pulsar! Ride safe 😊

Even the manufacturer has no idea? 🙄 Do you think without having any idea they are selling lakhs of vehicles every month?
Yes, after replace castrol 80w90 gear oil my scooty perform much better and more silent operation, than normal 10w30 engine oil.
Yes it definitely would be silent. Also you can change the oil at 12000 km.
In my Hero duet user manual, it is written to replace gear oil with 100ml of 10w 30 engine oil. Using separate gear oil is not mentioned by most OEMs
It's most important change the gear oil as change the engine oil.
Even suzuki access 125cc 2018 and later models use 10w30 engine oil as gear oil. It's mentioned in service manual as well.
I am using Yamaha's yamalube gear oil for my 2019 access which is from my findings even though the bottle is just 100ml the oil grade is 10W40, i don't feel any major differences

I remember my father used to fill Castrol crb plus 400 ml as gear oil in oil chamber of bajaj chetak and used to changed it every 2500 km to 4000 kms.

I got my first service done of my jupiter zx intelligo last week after filling engine oil that is the jupiter tru4 skutta oil about 150 ml was left so he used that same in the gear box when i asked him why arent u using the designated gear oil he said no it doesn’t make a difference its the same thing..
What would u say about this?? Is it okay to use the same oil or should we use the proper designated gear oil
Use what owner's manual mentioned
I am unable to procure Castrol gear oil in my city. All petrol pump and local autoparts dealer say that the product has been discontinued.
No the product hasn't been discontinued it is hard to find get gear oil from authorized dealers or parts shop or use engine oil and change every 2000 km or 6 to 12 months
Informative 👌
bro you shud do lab test between this , motul gear oil n full synthetic oil 7100 10w40
What a coincidence! Here is it: th-cam.com/video/UBiWXjlv4NE/w-d-xo.html
@@thesportztourer yeah 😀 saw that comparo yesterday. it was fab. can you do that with this 120ml Castrol gear tube... want to check difference between their additives n modifiers.
also is there any other geal oil available in 120ml tube in fully or semi synthetic
Can i use yamaha scooter gear oil to suzuki access 125 bs4 model scooter?
sir can you please give a review of Eneos sythetic oil for scooters?
How often should you change the gear oil?
between 6000-7000kms
Can we use Shell Spirax 85W-140 Axle Oil as Gear Oil for scooters because I have a 1 liter of it just sitting and used for lubing my RTR's chain 🙃
@The Sportztourer Pls bro still waiting for your valuable reply 🙂
There should be no harm in using this oil. Heavier oils in gear box is fine.
Hello sir. At present castrol gear oil is not available in my local market as well as in online. Is there any alternative gear oil which is avilable online..?
You can use Yamahalube
Hi sir.. I have honda activa 5g and I just got my scooty serviced. Actually I have only asked for changing engine oil but not for power oil and gear oil individually. So does it also necessary to have power oil and gear oil changed bcoz I don't have much knowledge about them.. please tell if its necessary then I would ask to change them also in next service.
Hi Harmanjeet!
When was the last time you changed the gear oil? Total km done on your Activa 5G?
Most of the mechanic say buy 1 liter engine oil put oil for 850 ml then balance oil will put on gear box it is good engine or bad
800ml bottle. 700ml for engine and 100ml for gearbox
Sir can I use Castrol scooter engine oil and gear oil in my yamaha scooter. Is it safe to use this engine and gear oil for yamaha scooter. If not please suggest some kind of engine oil and gear oil for yamaha scooter. Plz sir reply.
Hi Abhishek,
Yes, you can use this gear oil but for engine oil Yamaha recommends 10W-40 for most of its scooters. If it is 10W-40 in your case then I would suggest you to stick with 10W-40.
@@thesportztourer thank you sir for reply I really appreciate.
I got Jupiter serviced at local mechanic shop .
He used Castrol 20w50 oil .is it safe to use ?
10w30 JASO MB is for scooter... 20w50 would be much thick.. you must be feeling that difference when you ride. For next time chose oil specially made for scooter like the above mentioned grade..
Please advise can i use
85w140 gear transmission oil for jet 14 injection 200 cc??
My service centre advisor told gear oil changes are usually done every 15-20k KM
Hi,
For which scooter?
@@thesportztourer Honda activa

Hi bro!!
I'm planning to fit the auxbeam gt series ledlight in my Apache rtr 200 4v racing edition. Do i need to adjust anything with my battery??
Hi,
The GT consumes 45W which is less than the stock bulb so no problem in that. If you want to stick to halogen then I would suggest you this one: amzn.to/2KpxIx2
@@thesportztourer thank you!! If interested kindly do a video about your experience(long-term) with the auxbeam gt!
Any buying location or links?
Car gear oil can use at scooter gear?
Bro My New Pulsar 150's Rear Disk Brake Is Not As accurate In Braking as front It doesnt suddenly lock wheel And It has Only single channel ABS in front brake.. Is there any problem ?
Hi Chirag,
Rear brakes are generally kept lighter in bite and progressive side when compared to the front ones. Still you can get it inspected and if required then bleeded from the authorized service.
Bro where can I get Castrol gear oil 80w 90 it's not available in online.pleace help me bro

Hi!
Which oil are you using now?
@@thesportztourer mak 10w30 scootech NXT engine oil used.
I would suggest you to go for the recommended 10W-40 grade. You can either try the Liquimoly scooter engine oil which was reviewed here: th-cam.com/video/5uWwM1u68Yc/w-d-xo.html
Or you can go for the Amsoil scooter engine oil which was mentioned in this video (yet to complete): th-cam.com/video/QuldEWhiN5E/w-d-xo.html
Both these oils are available in the 10W-40 grade.

Bro plzz help nd tell me what should i do..i have 2014 jupiter and almost run 80k kms now mri jupiter bht engine oil khane lgi h so I have to top up every month and change it in every 3 month for better engine life and company wale says ki engine bandhna pdega but people says koi benefit ni hota isse itna u should sell it now but i can't I'm just emotionally attach with my jupiter and condition is like factory notch... What i should do now... And is gear oil ka buy link?
Hi Anmol!
What will be your plan if you sell the Jupiter? Agar apko fir se scooter hi leni hai then I would suggest go for engine rebuild. Do it from an authorized service or from an expert mechanic and things should be back to normal.
@@thesportztourer yes ghr wale jupiter hi leke dnge.. Or tvs walo se build krvata hu to life kya rhegi engine ki fir?
Good but not swallowable to strangers be more detailed in explaining when using tech jargons so people can actually sense and apply what u want to convey
After how many km or months it needs to be change?
4000 to 5000 km and 2 years
What u think about Apache bs6
This Castrol gear oil tube is available online?........plz share link if available.
I got it from an offline store. Will update you if I get a reliable online source 😊
Hello bhai, ntorq me mereko 80w90 gear oil daalna h but manual me likha h ki use engine oil as gear oil voh 10w30, aap batao kya karu.
Use engine oil if you are not a heavy user . Try using 10w30 mb grade ,only for scooter engine and gear oil of any brand.
Tell me how to change the gear oil of the Mahindra rodeo rz?
I m using 80/90 grade oil in gear box.. In activa 125 ...koi problem ni nhi hogi nah?
@@rch6956 yupp pulsar m chain bht smooth ho gyi h usko use krne k bad... No sound
Hi m9j,
As Rahul has commented you can continue with 80W-90 gear oil. How is your experience with it?
Come on Rahul! Helping is never hijacking 😊
Happy to have enthusiasts like you on the channel.
Thank you!
I always use 90 grade oil for my scooter. The mechanic and show room guys always use engine oil instead of gear oil.
The irony is that 95% of the users don't know there is a separate gear oil used in their scooters.
The scooter manufacting companies never tell the customer s about gear oil
Absolutely! How is your experience with 90 grade gear oil? Which brand?
@@thesportztourer It deliver smooth moving of gear and ensure the durability I used Hindustan Petroleum s gear oil
Yup, I been owning one for many years and never knew.
THANK you for this!
I wish if you could help me out on this. I have a new Pulsar 150 800km in, still in break-in but bike feels to resist going beyond 55. Bajaj says their oil has 10k km drain interval but its already unpleasant to drive. I have bought 15w50 mineral oil of Motul so when should I replace the oil?
Hi Tejas,
The oil should be changed during first service. For mineral oils I would suggest 3000km drain interval for heavy use.
Congratulations for the Pulsar! Ride safe 😊
Can scooter gear oil use car gear oil?
Bro i changed my gear oil of dio bs4 but the gear oil did not come out from the upper bolt will there be any problem
Quantity must not be sufficient. Change your gear oil every 4000 to 5000 km or 2 years.
Sir.. after i change the gear oil in my TVS JUPITER .. it started taking load while accelerating.. pls help
Dis you overfill?
I hear a Tik tik sound when I’m taking turns and I’m guessing it’s from the rear left side, what can that be?
Go to nearest service centre at ask them for clutch shoe cleaning. The clutch box has got some dust due to which it is making noise.
Cam we add 2ml of mos2 in gear oil
Castorl gear oil ka link provide karne ki kirpa karein?
Bro can I use motul 10 w 40 fully synthetic oil with ester core in my TVS scooty pep
Bro don't waste your money motul 3100 or motul scooter le 10w30 mb is sufficient for tvs pep even for jupiter.

Sir which engine oil is best for Apache180 ?
10w40 motul 7100 fully sythetic
Thank you sir
Hi Rajat,
Which oil are you using now? As Nilesh suggested 7100: amzn.to/2LTUy2u is a good option for 180.
No need of synthetic. Shell 10-40 semi or mobile supermoto 10-40 can be used .price will less than 400
What is the gear oil capacity for Aprilia sr150 please respond
110ml
Hi, please let me know whether using Castrol gear oil reduces the humming noise in activa??
Hi Nithin,
The noise from the V belt (drive belt) rotation cannot be reduced by gear/engine oil.
