Re: Possible write-off

My mechanic was talking about repairing it and not replacing it. Unless he is able to find one from a wrecker? I don't know. Supposedly there is only one dude in Sydney who is able to repair frames and he is kept fairly busy.

That would be Laurie Alderton I think, used to be a mob down here in ...

Re: Possible write-off

Rear subframe is fully replaceable mate.......... only let them write it off if the MAIN frame is damaged ;)

Neck is fine ...

Possible write-off

My beautiful and loving ZXR750 was ran up the ass last night at the lights. I came out without a scratch, only a sore right ass cheek. I've just spoken to the mechanic and he has said the sub-frame is bent which could make it a write-off :cry:. He said the frame can be sent off to be straightened ...

Re: Oil change

Thanks a lot for the quick feedback.

I did my last around 2,000km's ago and i haven't topped up since. Would it be worthy topping it up a bit now? I'm getting it changed at the mechanic next thursday, it was just such a pain to do it mess free and get rid of the oil at home.

Oil change

When would you say it's best to do an oil change kilometre wise on a ZXR-750? Or oil top ups?

Cheers for any help
