Jimmy2Time Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 For my 99 R1100RT-p I purchased the complete 12/24k super maintenance kit with synthetic oil from beemerboneyard. When I drained the final drive oil, it was a nice red color. When I put in the synthetic oil (Liqui Moly Racing Gear Oil sae 75w-90 api-gl5), it was clear. That doesn't seem quite right. Please tell me I just didn't do something completely horrible to my bike. Link to comment

moshe_levy Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 The red fluid is likely BMW's - their synthetic 75W/140 commonly used at dealer changes is bright red. -MKL Link to comment
