Default ShockProof and Clutch Question

i was wondering where you guys buy you shockproof from? and i was also wondering how much you guys are paying for it??

now for the clutch question. i have a hydrolic clutch and i'm getting ready to change all my fuild for the first time since i got the clutch install. i was just wondering if there is anything special with changing the trans fliud? or is it just like the stock clutch and just drain and fill??

Nothing special with changing the tranny fluid, simply drain-and-fill like you said

I buy V-Twin Transmission Oil with ShockProof® directly from REDLINE: http://www.redlineoil.com/product.aspx?pid=119&pcid=13

Get the regular....same thing no MC on the label. Same with the MTL & 20w50. BTW, a fill of shockproof heavy is good for at least 20,000 miles or 3 years. So, don't go crazy stocking up unless you are one of those iron butt guys.

Yeah, summit racing is a 35 minute ride from my house but I have to pay tax and RPW is out of state, cheaper and no tax and only like $8 shipping. So I usually stock up.
