It is generally accepted that using syn gear oil in your FD will make it more likely to leak. Best to go with dino in the BMW reccomended weight on that bike. Read up on final drive failures when you have lots of time on your hands and youll see.

The last one I bought was $85. I think they're around $100 now. The magnesium ones are under $190. You're getting screwed.
