Post by aukurfuu »

Hey guys. This zxr250c is my first bike so i don't know alot. So i figured id ask the best. I have had what I think is oil coming out of the left side of my bike out of the hole that goes into where the airbox is. I took the cover off and can see it happening. Any of you guys able to help me. Thanks

reckon you can throw a pic on here? I think I can help, sounds like the stator cover, if so, a new gasket is about $25 at your door from ebay. Pic first though, this is just an assumption...

This may be a guess but have you checked your oil level? monitor it before and after a few rides and see if there's a change, to be honest, I've never seen oil coming out there, so I'm not sure what it is, but I've pulled the airbox off and everything, and under that angled tap looking thing,there's an inlet into the engine, though my thoughts was that it is some sort of breather...

Yep that's your crank case breather that goes into the airbox.
Check your oil level, I foundif mine was at the higher part if the level I'd get oil there, if it was in the middle or just below it I got hardly any oil in the airbox.
Take a photo of your oil level while the bikes vertical :)
anyone can go fast in a straight line,,,,

When i rev the bike like i said , it comes out from the angled tap, the base of that tap is also broken, ( not all of it is attached to the base ) im not sure if i should start my bike and let it all come out.
