    Dropped my bike again, slow speed

    lol, I think its just minerals from rain water that built up in there. I checked it while the bike was on a rear stand. The oil slightly above the max line, the bike was completely cold. Thanks for the guide. I hope I can get this done sometime this week. Can you suggest a place to buy...

    Dropped my bike again, slow speed

    Its like white crust. Its hard to get in there to clean it. I managed to get it off with a slightly bigger allen key. I took off one side of my plastics, and realized I need an oil change. Any recommendations for what oil I should buy? Brand and weight? I tried to take off the lever so I...

    Dropped my bike again, slow speed

    yeah, and its also something we learned and spent a lot of time doing in the course. I need to revisit those exercises and get better at it! The fitting for the allen key has dirt built up in it and when I try to insert the key, it doesn't grip. I am going to try again today and see if I...

    Dropped my bike again, slow speed

    Thanks for the links to the guides, very little leaked out. But I want to make sure the levels are okay. I will try to remove the fairings this weekend. What should I do if one of the bolts is stuck and I can't get the allen key in there?

    Dropped my bike again, slow speed

    Not at all. I posted my story for your support. I can handle the constructive criticism that you've provided for me. The first time I dropped my bike, it was in the driveway and I laid it down very gently when I was walking it out of the driveway. I think I am going to order frame sliders and...

    Dropped my bike again, slow speed

    I was trying to turn around on a side street, I had both feet on the pegs, I started off okay, but then I sensed I was heading for the curb, I grabbed front brake and down I went! Some green liquid, (engine coolant???) dripped out. The clutch lever looks like a curved banana. Small piece on the...

    Is this mileage normal for a GS500F?

    Only recorded two tanks on my Ninja 650R, but here they are: 288.6km on 10.91l = 3.78l / 100km or 26kms per litre 272.0km on 10.83l = 3.98l / 100km or 25kms per litre

    Sadly, its because they see it far too often.

    Kawasaki's 2013 new 250r. Are you ready?

    From a marketing point of view, this move by Kawasaki nullifies the argument from cbr250 owners to buy that bike over a ninja because it is FI and ABS.

    Close call, not really!

    I was riding to work today. I was traveling on a not-so-busy street when a guy in a white SUV completely rolled a stop sign and made a left turn right in front of me. Two things worked in my favour: I was going up hill and I saw him well before he cut infront of me. I laid my thumb on the...
