Obviously some fluids are better performing than others but that's down to the specs not the colour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smilinjack 0 Posted July 22, 2014 It's the sort of thing pretentious Italian motorcycle buffs do. btw Oberon cylinder is a sound move, but you will still need to periodically bleed the clutch line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
