is it normal after riding 30 mins that when i look at oil level window it seems there are tiny bubbles on the top of oil. After an hour i checked and it was normal level and an with out bubbles. Could it be after 960 mile through twistys its breaking down? I haven't looked at the brakes yet...
I will clean my chain. No more excuses. I was more interested in when a clutch is going bad or needs to be adjusted. Also if i give it a full twist of throttle in first gear should my wheel come up? My sv650 did, but i figured all the power on fz1 was at the top and not the bottom.
Well as far as oiling the chain, i bought the bike from a guy who lived by the sea it has a lot of surface rust on it. I was going to let it go and just replace it and start fresh after i deemed it wasn't any good. I did have it lubed when i got the tires replaced 300 mile ago. So Im not one...

Scotchgard Paint Protection Film, i use a magnetic tank bag and on my last bike it left some scratches down to the under coat, were can i by ab 8.5x11 sheet of this stuff?

I leave to work at 6am, and the stock can has a "stealth" sound i can ride very lightly without to much noise, does the two brothers not sound to loud at 10-15mph?
I have been a yosh man my whole life, but am thinking about the two brothers exhaust, I have always had stainless but am thinking about carbon fiber or titanium. My question is does the carbon fiber ever go bad because of being parked in out side in the sun? it seems the carbon fiber hoods on...
