I have a shop manual Pioneer 500/520 SxS and there's no mention of changing transmission fluid or how to do it. Is the engine oil the transmission fluid too?

All current Honda powersports products (except scooters) use the same oil sump for the transmission and engine. Also not including P1K and Talon sub trans oil.

When you change the engine oil, the transmission is also drained.
