Just about to put the boy's KTm back together, but don't have any info on what oil should go in it.

This is the oil that sits in the clutch/trans bit, not the 2 stroke oil, obviously.

Anyone know offhand what we should be putting in there..?

Just so there's no confusion, here's a pic of where it'll go...

Nice orange bolts you have there.

Halfords 2 stroke gear oil will be fine.

Ok, great. I'll grab some of that tonight then. Many thanks, oh Frosty one!

It's since been cleaned up a bit, the kickstart and some bits have yet to go back on, but you can see how much cleaner everything is, and there's new pipes and jubbly clips;

The rest of it was pretty rusty and neglected too, but we've cleaned almost all of it up and it looks really good now.

Quite surprised it brushed up so well, tbh, build quality seems to be nearly as good as a Honda.

light gear oil should be fine you might want to make sure you get rid of the kink in the pipe from the pump to the head might restrict flow.
