What clutch/brake fluid should I be using to top up the cylinder with folks? Grade/category or recommended brand?

I already have Donax YB Dot 4, so would this be OK?

Thanks. It's in for it's 36k next week so I guess it will be checked/changed then. Want to use it all next week and engaging and disengaging gears is a bit sticky. So hoping it's low fluid rather than something somewhat more expensive!

Well, I've had some problems with the valve clearances which meant that I had to have two adjustments in addition to the usual ones.

But at the last service all seemed fine; I guess I'll find out next week if the problem has returned but it seems to be running smoothly at the moment - other than needing the service (idle speed and throttle boy adjustment etc I think).
