Hi,

First problem fixed already...silly me! Embarassed

Also, I know it's really stupid but today I found out I have been riding without any oil for about 600km (because my brother told me he filled it up and I didn't bother to check but when I finally did it was all empty and the oil bottle I had given him was all full so with a bit of common sense... Neutral) Could there be any serious damage to the bike from this?

Thanks a lot! Smile

Hi

Blown rear right indicator bulb.

Which oil has it been run without? Without 2 stroke oil it will probably seize, or at the very least suffer loads of wear to the main and big end bearings. Without gearbox oil it is likely to trash the gearbox.

Being honest it isn't likely that you have managed 600km without oil, so hopefully you have run low and just noticed in time.

All the best

Keith

And the oil light didn't come on why? Maybe he did fill it up and you've just run it dry again, I'm pretty sure my 2 stroke oil would've run out on my NSR in 600km.
