    are there any WR 360 auto owners in Australia who can help ? I need a spray clutch and oil info?
    How common are these bikes in AU?

    Yes!
    Oil, quote; "I have got a can of the proper stuff and I quote,the replacement for Esso Univis J 26 is Mobil Univis HVI 26 but being an industrial oil I'm afraid it's only available in 20 litres pails. I can not find any one who will definitely tell me of an equivalent or better oil available in smaller amounts."
    I assume the sprag clutch you need is on the first gear clutch, you will be unable to kick the bike over?

    Yes it is the first gear sprag clutch.
    Part numbers 16 12 545-01 two of and also require 1612547-01 one of and 1612548-01 two of.
    any parts supplier you'd suggest? are these auto bikes still common in UK?
    Have looked at Mobil Australia website but don't seem to list that oil you suggested.

    The oil is the one recommended by Husqvarna, if you search on here you will find many threads about it.
    The bikes are very rare in the UK. I only know two other owners and only I ride them regularly of the three.
    You might get more answers in the Vintage Left kickers page, there are several Australian riders who post regularly in there.
