Hey guys. Just brought home an 02 yesterday woot woot!!! Holy crap this bike is fun. Pics to come. Right now i'm cleaning her up.
But the seller didn't have the owners manual (got all his work done at the shop). And i'm about to change the oil. So if someone could tell me what the manual says for viscosity and capacity of engine oil that would be great. Thanks!
You start out motorcycling with a full bag of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.
Some people are like slinkies; they're good for nothing but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
I just dump a gallon in mine, don't worry about the .1 quarts. 10W-40 Honda HP4 Synthetic blend is what I run, but actually changing the oil is WAYYYYYY more important than the brand you run.
right here in walterboro (near charleston, orangeburg, sav). i be on the speedzilla board daily, but rarely post. meant to do the ride up in spartanburg / greenville area (from rc51 board a few months ago) but didnt make no plans.
only me and that other dude showed. ridden with him a couple times, he's got a little too much mustard on his hotdog for me...stoppies in gville traffic, 100mph wheelies, but the dude can ride. road me off his wheel in the mtns with his wife on the back, till she puke'd!

cant say that I do the wheelie thing that much (maybe a small one just to say I can lift the tire and let it come back down). Glad everything turned out ok though. I would never ride hard if i had a girl on the back, just taking too much of a chance if something was to happen. I know a guy down here that he did a wheelie and his girl fell off and wasn't to good for the girl.
RC51 motor oil. How much and how thick?
