    How much oil should be used in a 250X tranny. The 450X forum says to use a full quart in the 450X tranny. I did a search for the 250X and could not find anything. Thanks in advance.

    670cc after draining is what Honda recommends.

    I run closer to 800cc.

    Is that for the same reason given for the 450x?

    Yup. They are similar in design. Although the problem has turned up in the 450X, not the 250X, a little extra doesn't hurt anything.

    I'm with Agent. Until recently, I'd been trying to stay as close to the recommended amount as possible (doing the side cover check-bolt removal, watching to make sure fluid just starts to come out). I think using more fluid than normal also helps lube the pressure plate throw-out bearing, which looks higher up in the center of the clutch than the recommended fill amount would contact.
