antifreeze and gear oil

There is a drain bolt for the coolant under the belt case air cleaner plastic cover on the left side. The bolt is slightly to the left of the center line for the cover and just to the right of the carburetor hose that attaches to the front of the cover.

Over at the Yahoo Reflex group there was a way to replace the gear oil without taking the left crankcase cover off. I only recall it had to do with forcing the oil back up the drain opening. The oil from Honda comes in a squeeze tube and I used the whole tube so I suppose it could be done that way. I was replacing the belt so I just did it the way the service manual describes.

You have a Reflex now?
