In scooter drag racing (SS1/32 mile), I use low-viscosity 0W-30 engine oil as gear oil. Is adding Bell Scooter effective under these conditions? Also, what is the recommended dosage?

Product characteristics
Bell Scooter is a friction-reducing lubricant designed specifically for scooters.
It forms a lubricating film on metal surfaces, lowering frictional resistance while protecting gears and bearings.
Even under short-duration, high-load racing conditions, it maintains smooth torque transfer and stable lubrication.

Effect with low-viscosity oil
When 0W-30 engine oil is used as a substitute for gear oil, Bell Scooter remains effective.
It strengthens the oil film and reduces metal-to-metal contact, minimizing friction losses during takeoff and reducing the risk of gear scoring or wear.

Recommended dosage
Add 5–10% of the total oil volume.
・Start with about 5% and evaluate throttle response and launch behavior.
・For competition setups requiring maximum protection, up to 10% can be added.

Notes
Bell Scooter does not significantly alter viscosity but enhances oil film retention.
In setups tuned for extreme throttle response, the feel may become slightly smoother, though durability and gear protection will improve notably.

Summary
・Effective even with low-viscosity oil use
・Recommended dosage: 5–10% (start with 5%)
・Improves lubrication stability, drive efficiency, and gear durability
