Need to bleed my brakes/clutch on my aprilia mille 99
What oil should I use?
 
Dot4 is perfectly adequate or if planning on lots of track days/high speed riding Dot5.1, do not use Dot5 (silicon based)
 
As above. But 5.1 is more hydroscopic so absorbs moisture quicker than 4 so may end up changing it more regular.
 
Be sure you get the special and more expensive black DOT4 for the clutch
It's hard to come by, but well worth the extra :thumbup
