    hi, I’m planning on chamging the oil in the gearbox of my 50cc scooter. The label on the bike says it requires GL-3 oil, I can’t find anyone who sells it. I want to know whether there is a equivalent type of oil to this or can I use a different viscosity. If anyone knows where to get some GL-3 oil please could you let me know.

    Thanks
