Biking Talk / high oil level after standing
« on: October 27, 2012, 04:11:46 PM »
Today I decided to start my r1. its been on paddock stands and optimate since september 09.
Started on the button but run very rough for 10 minutes (to be accpected) run it until fan in and out but when it was running I noticed that the olil was still showing in the site glass. (towards the botton mark) When I switghed her off the oil ran back into the site glass real quick and looked very thin, when it setaled the oil level is full of the site glass,
Now I thought I had turned of the petrol tap when I parked it up, but found out today I had'nt. There as been no petrol on the garage floor but Im now wondering if fuel could have leaked past float valve and run into cylinders, seeped past rings and into sump.

Biking Talk / new boots and helmet
« on: January 21, 2012, 04:35:37 PM »
Need to buy some new boots to replace my ageing sidi vertabrate.
Been looking at the tcx race and arlen ness race, Anyone had experiance of these, did fancy some gaerne but can't seem to locate any dealers in south wales that stock them. Also tryed one of the new shark race pro r helmets fit nice but what are they like in a year or twos time. does the padding lose its shape how easy is it to get black visors etc.

Been using the metzelar interacts this year and been running them at 28psi and 31psi hot as recommended. I have had a few slides with these on that never happened with the old ractecs, are they a stiffer carcass, should I be backing off rear preload or somthing?
