  2. well if it as a really nice nurse you'll probably pop most vessels and arteries eh before they start. lol.
  3. some bikes are happy to burn abit, some brands of oils burn more than others, depending on how the engine was designed and which oils were selected at the OM spec. so for some it might not matter as long as its in spec of X ml to 1000miles. you can blend them if you know what youve got (the characteristics of those oil) and what your end result your after...some might just see it a negative reason of re selling or something else. Thats the point...they aint all the same. so one garage goes meh close enough... they have different characteristics which is great when you know what you want it do do for whats inside, if you dont thats why sometimes people think hey why does this feel so different/terrible now? its a good chance its sue to this.. some units and people are more sensitive to adjustments than others so its really down to the user to make what they want of anything. if you go to use a ohlins cert service garage you have a very good change of them using an ohlins oil, reasonable so if the dealer/garage has a long history with the brand. nothing scary inside those forks as just a plain cartridge system with a wire and a small solenoid to move the valve for you, not much different to a AMT / DCT gearbox system really or if your familiar with an automatic preload adjuster. Now if its a magnetic system then it gets a bit more complicated and special oil...
  4. exactly which is why to assume they are all the same or what you put in is really ideal for what the user wants or needs.
  5. j and s and sportsbike can just get it delivered to you or the shop it you ask for it, they are good at that. halfords....yes well. you could ask a dealer or garage near you, theyll happly sell shite over the counter....its still money for them.
  6. thats the fluid they put into your bike from the factory...which one of their "grade" is another matter. even if you took it a dealer including if its a multiple brand dealer so its no guarantee that they will use that oil again, as its not the most common or easier to source than say motul but others are available and not to say its crap but most of the bigger players have a cheapest option available for mass production -what goes in the factory is the cheapest. Now guzzi from my knowledge don't quite have the same buying power of volume so generally they go bigger buys in aftermarket versions which is very good. so what does a dealer do, just fill it with what they got there on the shelf thats the nearest to it...thats even if they bother to do it, as most ignore it because even the manual says no (when really the know they should do it or its just one of those who thinks fook it they wont notice...
  7. dont worry its sounds normal for you guys! lol
  8. nope....better why you ned to ask.. nope not quite, it varies. thats the rough idea but depends on brand, quality and what is was designed for...
  9. hi and welcome
  10. Hi
  11. the yama o7 engine and chassis are flighty by nature, hence why it got abit of a hooligan reputation. i know your is a low reving by nature, just that most other and smaller inline 4 are not, so require more revs for the same effect. the speed is not like the yam 7, its behaviour is more gentle and closer to your cb. you can even just get a new seat or refit with different foam...options are available. reliability is very good for triumph, even honda and yama fook it up even to this very day. i mean they still cant paint a swing arm or a sump correctly even now. really i think you just need to get the right bike for you and live with the price of something. cos if everything is just about price , either learn to service it yourself or get a smaller bike.
  12. Hi! nice bike! brother had one of them for a while...bit of a beast.
  13. 1) IF you fully pass and gain full entitlement on a MANUAL OPERATING GEARED bike of a manual clutch 125 you can ALSO carry a pillion insurance permitting. 2) IF YOU PASS FULLY ALL MODS ON an AUTO ( no manual clutch) YOU are STUCK with the AUTO/scooter of that engine type WITH PILLIONS insurance permitting. So really if you can operate a manual now (through a car licence) then just get a manual bike license cos it opens so many choices, if its auto only just because of reasons that are for you to know....its just that...IF YOU PASS FULLY ALL MODS WITH A MANUAL GEARBOX BIKE...DO WOT What you want even bomb about on a automatic long as its a 125 within a certain power to weight ratio. 4) if you passed a auto you shouldnt/cannot ride the manual of the same engine or higher with or without pillion. so a manual is a higher entitlement as its harder to control and gain than a auto. you can go (ride or drive license permitting) down the entitlement without a fuss or question but you cant just jump up to it (manual) when you didnt pass or bother to gain it.... so to put it REALLY BLUNTLY and living with younger generations ill put it this way - you noob at auto your stuck at it. you work hard for and can get a manual you can do it or go really lazy and drive/ride a auto car/bike AFTERWARDS, if you get those full entitlements you can risk your pillion/passengers life legally with insurance. so to round off so i/we have a manual car and bike license- but at the mo i/we have an automatic car (just cos it works for the family) and manual bikes, i can carry pillions/passengers for any of those vehicles (manual or automatic) as i have insurance to allow it.
  14. the the cat is the sounder deadener naturally so if you minus that when the bike was designed for it to pass EU noise noise and emissions reg you are totally fooking that right up and making it an unbearable, embarrassing right from the off..and good luck getting that mot passable without putting it back to std every prior mot..just from experience from many transport variants.
