yer sure feels dodgy when u do it.

p.s good luck looking in the hole....i usually take the fairing blade off to make it easier.
hole is a bastard to see into without a torch.

Well i found out that when the mech's were lookin at me camchain (an d how fucked it is) they didnt top up the oil :O....*shock* -_-

Needed near on 800 mls of oil, its prob using a bit, its got rather high km's

Btw, does the oil in the engine crankcase get circulated around the gearbox too ?
If so, then if you should fuckup a gear change and grind some teef just briefly, should you change the oil and flush it?

i heard a wicked horror story or someone losing thier whole bottom end due to gearbox shavings... (it happens occasionally)

Gears ain't made of cheese man, mabey If you managed to grind a few mm off it rolling down a hill bouncing in between gears for a few minutes then you might take a bit off, but for now don't worry. Filters generally catch crap like that. And yes that same oil goes everywhere.

i need to purchase a new battery myself. where is the best place to shop for one? are there any online stores or is it best to just go to one of the local bike shops (lower hutt, wellington)? thanks.

[skidMark]

any bike shop can get it in for you from one of thier wholesalers

just go see them and get them to find out what it is ( it may just be in a book they have) or they can just pop the rider seat and taadaa...

should be about 40 bucks for a cheapy or 80 or so for a decent battery

the dynavolt i think they are called is alright and for a mere 40 -50 bucks...

oh and make sure they leave it to sit for at least an hour after filling it prior to charging.... then get them to trickle charge it over night (slow charge not quick charge) before you get it....then it should last a long time

[imdying]

Don't get a shitty one, get a Yuasa. ZXR250s can be hard on batteries if they're not in good nick (either the battery or the ZXR )
