Heh, thanks for your reply. Been sorted a while ago. I forget the exact torque, but I did them all up to that, and 2000 miles later... everything...
Not using fully synthetic is up to you, it is your bike, mine has done over 46000 km, and still doesn't use any oil in between changes. Besides, a...
I've found that running a good synthetic oil helps gears shift smoother. Bent selector forks can make for an unreliable shift too, also there are...
It's not an oil level sensor, it's a pressure sensor. If your bikes oil light is coming on, that means the oil pump is sucking in air and as air...
I'm looking for some too, top bushings, lower ones too if I can find them. Will post when I find some.
You talk about cogs? Sounds like you're taking the motor bit apart. To align the valve, you need to take the cover off the lower bit, on the...

Yes, I'm talking about the inlet manifold rubbers... I got a tube of silicone rubber fom the local DIY store for £1.69, so I'll have a go at...
Looks like mine are all cracked up. I don't want to wait until one or more start leaking and causing the engine to run lean on one or more pots,...
Heh, you say that... I've used Castrol R40 in a 2 stroke bike before, and that's a castor based 4 stroke oil. <!-- s:) --><img...
Ahh, yes... that's an article I'd seen before, and interesting read I thought. I've since had words with the people I know who use car oils in...
I should think it does have friction modifiers in it, as it's a Synthetic 5W-40 SL / CF rated car oil. It doesn't make the clutch slip at all on...
