Congrats on your new bike too! What kind of bike? And what kind of damage?
2025 Honda CB500f! I just got my license and took the MSF course (mandatory here in order to even get a learners permit) and I’ve been riding it almost every day since I’ve gotten it less than a month ago.
Love the enthusiasm for maintenance. It always stresses me out. My first bike I opened the wrong screw and got air into my brake lines which messed all sorts of things up for me so now I’m always nervous about working on my stuff :/
You could be neither guy nor gal and it would still be cool :) thank you! I plan to go at least 100km today. See some windy roads, maybe check out the new music store that opened up in my area.
Oil changes are the least glamorous maintenance item, as told by me haha. It does feel good in hindsight knowing that something that costs $90+ CAD (just for parts) was done in less than hour in my garage.
I didn’t even know they made oil filters with a nut already on them! That’s amazing. My next filter I’ll look for this. Thank you for the enlightenment.
Thank you! And oh yes I wouldn’t even attempt the repair if I wasn’t absolutely sure. Using the exact same oem oil and filter as stock. The crush washer came with its own little Honda tag. I thought it was cute.
Replacing sprockets sounds less intimidating for some reason
Fantastic YouTube channel where every video is art. Good recommendation!
This looks very neat! I’m going to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation
To Americans, tits may be considered porn. To a good chunk of the rest of the world, it’s not as pornographic.
They’re right. Remove Cletus.
That’s a sharp looking sport bike! I’m excited for ya!
Haha I can bleed mineral oil brakes on a fatbike. Not so sure if the skills fully transfer over on a motorbike!
