Hello, I want to change the oil in my final drive. Although I found a couple of how to's I am a little confused about the amount of oil to use. One person said the manual recomends to fill to "the bottom thread". But my question is, to which bottom thread? Also, I guess I failed to pay attention in class (30ish years ago) to the teacher when they were teaching conversion... How much is 150 ml?? any help would be awsome thanks!!

Well after you drain the oil with the bottom plug, reintall the bottom plug. Then with the top plug off fill the final drive untill the oil starts coming out, and flowing over. Install top plug and that is that. Have fun ridding if you are in an area that you can ride almost all year round.

Just to confuse things a little more for you, a US ounce is ~29.5 ml and an Imperial ounce ~28.4 ml. The conversion tables in the Clymer manual are not always clear on when the reference is to the Imperial ounce. Just a heads up for anyone trying to sort out the conversion charts.
