Ok, I was asking about the oil filter as I have only just thought of it like a twat, and I don’t have a clue if the owner before me changed it. I spoke to a bike guy at work and he said I might as well get a service for the bike.
Um, what do they do in a service usually and how much am I going to be looking at for the basic look over??
Any info appreciated ____________________ Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult.

Check the plugs, and clean/replace them if necessary
Check the valve clearances, rectify them if necessary.
Check the carbs are balanced
Change oil and filter.
Check for play in Wheel bearing etc, replace any that are knackered.
Chck the break pads, and replace the brake fluid.
You could find this out with a quick google. I have a sheet with a full list of what the services entail for my bike, but I can't be bothered to go and read it. You seem to be obsessed with asking all these stupid questions lately Killa... You forgotten that this is an Internet forum? ____________________ Hard livin', hard luck.

The point is that at least half the questions you ask could be answered by a quick google search. Then if you were still unsure you ask.
You don't seem to want to go to the slightest effort yourself. What next, you're gonna take a crap and want someone to ride over and wipe your arse for you? ____________________ Hard livin', hard luck. |

don,t bother unless the valves are getting noisey (very differcult to do the clearances on a VFR)
and theres no point blancing the carbs unless the bike is running like shit. ____________________ Past:NRG50,AF1125(x2),NSR125RR,ZZR250,CX500,VFR400,KR1S,ZZR600(x2),CB400N,YZF1000(x2),KH125,Z200,FX400R,CBR954RR(x2)GPZ500S,GT550,VFR750F(x2),RD350N,XR650R,CBR600F,CB250,KDX250,YZF750R,CRM250,400EXC,KLR650,TTR600RE,DR350S,R100GSPD,RGV250,VMAX1200,DL650 Present:G650XC,C12,KZ750,1190ADV |
