Mornin dudes....anyone ever try this oil? I found it on Amazon, mostly good reviews, occasionally someone says it causesd hard shifting. But otherwise full stars. It would be for my 954's & 929's. It's just a cost issue, it's between OEM & this Your thoughts please

I have a 2007 cbr1000rr with a little under 18,000 miles. The last oil filter I bought from Napa had a dent in the canister. I didn’t want it to compromise the structural integrity of the filter so I decided to change it out ASAP. I torqued that filter (wix) to 20 lb/ft as specified in the...

17k mile cbr954rr. I've had it for over 2 years now and 2 winters. I've been the owner since 4k miles. So, here's what I do when the dead of winter comes around. i put new oil in the bike, and about once or twice a week no matter how cold it is, i'll put the bike through a full heat cycle...

Tried to take my bike out for a ride this morning and the oil light came on after it warmed up. I shut it off immediately, waited a few minutes and started it again. There was no light, so I tried to ride again, but it came on again a few seconds later. I limped home by running it for a bit...

Last night swapped the antifreeze out of my 04 CBR1000 for the first time since i bought it in 2012. The bike has about 9,000 miles on it. The owner before me swapped out in 2007. In the first few seconds of flow out of the drain plug in the coolant pump, the antifreeze was a dark brown; once...

Alright all, So was out checking me plugs today to see whether she was running rich/lean etc as feels a bit boggy and came across a few problems. First of all while it does look like its running a bit rich altogether, each plug had oil on the outside of it (just below the thread but not on the...

I'm hearing a light engine ticking even when the bikes temperature is above 80 - 90 Celsius, could it be from the trisynthetic oil ? The Motul 10w-40 trisynthetic oil or a 5w-40 full synthetic for a 929 2001 ? What do you guys recommend ? Thanks alot :)

Hey guys I noticed yesterday that the oil level light on my 01 929 is on. I took a look at the oil level window and it shows that the oil level is full. I changed it 2 rides ago. I used the motul trisynthatic 10w 40 oil. I added a little bit of oil later on today to see if the light goes off...

alright, so this oil leak that is underneath my bike hasn't gone away. If anything, it has gotten worse. After a ride, it leaks around 10-15 drops now. the oil is accumulating on the oil pan drain bolt/front lip, but the oil itself seems to be trailing down to there from the left side of the oil...

Good day I had an accident last year that left my Honda VFR 400 nc24 quite badly knocked up. Even though it took quite a knock, the engine still worked perfectly fine! Due to the front forks been bent, I had to move it by putting on its side using the side stand. After not starting it for...

i have a 2001 929 and after the bike warms up at idle the low pressure light stays on. as soon as i give it some throttle it goes away. i have heard many theories such as the sensor going bad, too much oil, not enough oil (i just did oil change level is fine), pcv lines clogged (it only started...
