lol i never really bothered to find out, but to fill the bike with oil, does it go into the right hand side near the rear brake pedal, basically where the clutch cable connects onto ?

i just got mine serviced (zx2rA) and he used some Shell sx4 and a H1013 oil filter dunno the brand. cost me $230.00 all up.

Damn... I pay $130 for the same oil and filter at my service shop. The guy at Top Tune even checks all my bikes fluids, brakes and chain.

BTW my first car was a Toyota Supra... Not a bad car.

supra's are alright ey! mine was purely a speed machine, it was an 84 model (MA61) with a newer 3L Turbo dropped in (7MGTE) with an aftermarket ECU, exhuast, injectors, filter, lots of boost!! it could even beat most 250's !!!

ok i have another question now!! the bike manual says it needs an oil grade of either... SE, SF or SG, but the oil i bought is a Repsol oil with Honda spec written on it, but its graded as an SJ.. so should i take it back and get an appropriate grade or will the SJ be fine to use ? cause its oil i bought from a bike only shop!
