so i’m currently trying to figure it out bst wheels has advertised that they can withstand street riding and a lot of people with m1000rr with carbon fiber wheels don’t really talk about this topic maybe it’s more of an unspoken thing cus it will hurt their egos
im guessing its for people who get a dct and then find they prefer controling the shifting but struggle remaping the brain when coming in hot they feel more comfortable with the foot shifting id bet that left hand also keeps reaching for the clutch too 😂😂
That would be true about the 'RR' but this the the 'RR-R' Fireblabe. Not the same bike and its power is comparable. This unit went on to make 214hp with a simple ECU tune, FYI.
@@RideQuick Was the oil also really low? was there knocking? Installed my oil filter wrong; had a brain fart. Was the bottom end damaged? my mechanic assumes that I may have lucked out with top end damage only. sorry just wanna hear more since I can find much on the cb300r and engine rebuilds.
@MikaelFresco there was knocking (thus the title of the video) and the oil was all but empty. Barely coated the bottom of the drain pan. The bottom end was fine.
@@RideQuick last question sorry but do you know if the drain pan oil connects to the bottom end or does it have to be filtered before reaching all engine components?
@MikaelFresco I believe you are asking about oil flow direction. Oil leaves the oil pan via the pump and is forced through the oil filter, then to the rest of the motor: crank, cylinder walls, cams, etc then returned to the oil pan. Repeat.
The leak was coming from the cracks around the valve stem, visible by the bubbles forming beside the valve stem. Cracks on both sides of the valve. The only fix is replacement. We are not capable of repairing carbon fiber layers.
