Why? DOT 5 is the silicone based fluid that should not be used.

DOT 5.1 has twice the boiling point properties of DOT 4 and is fully compatible.
I've been using it on my bike since I started in DD in 2008.

Castrol SRF is great for race cars where the fluid can reach extraordinary temperatures, but on our little bikes to be honest DOT 4 is satisfactory too.
