i usually put 15w50 mineral in bevels.

i'd think a 32 should be fine with a 250, but i'd fit whatever is in there now.

you'd do better posting this in vintage. this is more a belt ss page.

Nice find! Using mineral 20w50 is the way to go [15w50 may be hard to come by here] due to the relative lack of filtration. Change at approx 1k mi. Straight 40 or 50 wt. is too heavy unless the ambient temp is in the 90's consistently, even then it needs to warm for a while. I use Brad-Penn [the old Kendall GT1 green stuff], just to get the oil argument rolling! With its age you are probably looking at re wiring the ign. pickups as the insulation falls apart and shorts out. The info you need is on Bev Hev

Fair enough, sounds good. Yeah, I didn't know, I'll probably crosspost it over there.

Thanks!

Thanks! I'm probably going to go with mineral 20-50 then, I know BevelHeaven sells Motul in the 20w50, but I've never used it in anything. I'll look into ign. pickups, but it was stored inside in a climate controlled garage, so the seat and everything are in great shape. I'll pull the cover and look. Thanks!
