Hi, Those are different, Atomic ( and most motorcycles ) share same oil for
engine and transmission. ATF type A is the standard automatic transmission
fluid, ATF type F is for Ford transmissions, so stick to ATF Type A fluid.Many
manual transmissions/differentials also requires Hypoid oil ( grade between 70
and 90 ), but you should go with what's recommended by the manufacturer..

Subject: Re: Stus-List A4 Slips Out of Gear
Not directly related to A4’s, but about transmissions. My Perkins diesel has a
Hurth (HBW-50 -2R) transmission, and the PO recommended using type A automatic
transmission fluid. That’s what I have been using, but this discussion has
listed motorcycle oil for the transmissions in A4’s. Am I using the proper
fluid? - everything seems to be running fine.
