Today I rode my bike all over Chicago, kind of had the same problem as Auroraf4i stupid polish kids in their dads BMW trying to race. I'm selfishly ignoring the fact that it needs its first oil change since I don't want to pay 90$ at the dealer. And I can't find someone to do it for me. (

Double checked my front sprocket size before ordering a -1, stared at the peices scattered around my shed and continued to twiddle my fingers waiting for the new fairings to be delivered been nearly a month since ordered, starting to get impatient

You can bring it by my house, I'm out in Aurora. It's real easy.

@Mario get a owners manual offline or have aurora do it and watch. it is super easy and costs like 25 bucks and takes maybe 20 mins.

As for me I just rode mine to class lol. Loving carrying the helmet around as a conversation piece at class or at parties. they dont even see my bike and they still want to go for a ride. it is super nice out today and im done at 4 with class so im gonna go out and drag a knee for a while and put on some more miles

EDIT: Oh yeah and i gave her a bath the other day since i got caught in the rain coming back from Cleveland last week

Weekends work best for me, not this one, but maybe next. Just get the oil, filter, and crush washer and we will be done in less than 20min. You can get Repsol oil from any dealer or shop (there is one right down the road form me) or get it motorcycle oil from most auto parts stores. The Repsol will run you a pretty penny, just a heads up.

PM me and we can work something out.

mobil 1 4t is what i use, a lot of people like it.

the bike set inside the garage today, the weather was questionable and i didn't want to ride it to school today anyway. will be putting some new fairings on it in the near future and swapping tails as well. so didn't do anything today, but there is a lot of work in the near future.

I haven't put a lot of miles on the bike using it since my chain snapped but I have tons of miles on my Jeeps and trucks using Rotella (White jug until this time when I used the blue T6 flavor) and love it, can't say much about other oils because I put Rotella in at my first change but it hasn't let me down thus far.
