Dot 4 Brake fluid, assuming it's the Brakes you mean... if it's the coolant system, a 50/50 mix or better of antifreeze-coolant and de-ionised water. (Been a while since I've ridden a CX, rode a CX650 Eurosport between London-Edinburgh-Cardiff-London many years ago to complete the UK "Three Flags")DOT 4 will mix OK with DOT 3 etc, but not with DOT 5 or 5.1 etc, different base compounds... don't get me started on the Citroen requirementsPS don't diss the CX, 5,000 dispatch riders can't be wrong. Heavy, but good Iron in it's day. (And who remembers the TURBO verson? wierd and wonderful)
