    Oil filter

    Honda spec 10-30. This is the stuff. It is for motorcycles with wet clutches.

    Oil filter

    I have also since done an oil change. 800ml came out of the sump. Changed the filter at the same time. It took 900-950ml to get the level at the upper mark on the dipstick. I feel happier with those extra ml's in there. The dipstick is a little hit and miss. it you hold it on the threads as...

    Heel and Toe Shifter Advantages

    I very often don't downshift when slowing down to a stop, but stay in 4th and select the gear I want when I know what I need at the junction. That can mean pulling away in 2nd if still just moving or if the road is downhil, or sometimes selecting 3rd if the road suddenly opens up. I also...

    13 tooth front sprocket

    Just a quick comment on 0-ring chains: There is a lot of commentary on various motorcycle forums (especially motocross, enduro, off-road ones) about the power sapping effect of 0-ring chains. I think it is well proven that o-ring chains are "stiffer" than non-o-ring ones and therefore soak up...

    Diablo seat fitted

    The Diablo seat finally arrived in England from Thailand (from 1st Autos - good, reliable people - my racks came from them also) and it was worth the wait. Well constructed and a perfect fit. 2 nuts and 5 minutes and it was on. Locking mechanism works fine. Way more comfortable than the standard...

    15 tooth front sprocket

    I sometimes feel a 5th gear (overdrive) would be the answer, just for those occasions when you are cruising on the flat, or slightly downhill or with a tailwind, and would like a more leisurely experience.

    Centre push trim fixings

    Now ordered. I'll keep them in the little tool kit on the bike!

    Centre push trim fixings

    I am seeing some nice 6mm ones online which have a plastic screw in the middle instead of a push in piece. That seems like a good idea as you can simply screw in to fit and unscrew to remove. Anyone tried them?

    Centre push trim fixings

    I have managed to push out/through and lost the centre piece of one of the plastic trim fixings (on the battery cover). Anyone know what they are officially called and where they can be purchased from?

    Speedo accuracy

    Everything is standard at the moment and I intend to keep it pretty much that way. I am interested to see what the Importer says shortly.

    Oil filter

    Found it on ebay - ordered 2.

    Speedo accuracy

    Yes, it is an import from Thailand. JA65E 2023 model. I have spoken to the importer this morning and they are looking into it. They say they will get back in a day or two. I will report back here. Funny I was wondering why the bike was so slow, but discovered I was actually going 10mph faster...

    Spark Arrester

    I am totally with you on that. If you want a faster bike buy a bigger one. I won't be fitting a big bore kit or changing the exhaust etc.etc. I like the bike as it is. The spark arrester question was out of curiosity and whether it is really necessary on a UK bike.

    Speedo accuracy

    Yes. Definitely set to MPH.

    Speedo accuracy

    Can you help with this at all please? The speedo on my new CT is running very slow, approximately 10mph slow. I thought is felt wrong so I checked it with a gps app and 33mph on the speedo is 43mph on the gps. I have switched it between miles and kilometres a few times but that does not...
