That was sick

 

As a skateboarder I approve of this message.

 

Take the battery to Advance Auto or O'Reilly and have them load test it. I've had batteries that will show fully charged, but are so dead that they do not turn the lights or anything else on.

I guess this means the X-Games will have to start adding rails to their Moto X Freestyle parks... I wish we could see the expressions on the kids that were watching from the jungle gym area. Kids love motorcycles. I bet that was the highlight of their day.

 

Anyone interested in a bad ass CT70? Price is a little steep, but this thing looks rad. https://charlotte.craigslist.org/mcy/d/cornelius-1980-honda-ct70-mini-trail/7195729480.html

 

This was a really fun watch.

 

It looks really nice, but you can buy a new Honda 125 (Grom/Monkey/etc.) for less. Just wow!

 

honda brought back the monkey and now the trail... wonder if we get a new honda dax in the next coming years

 

Well shit. Guess im going back to the dealership soon

 

Uh oh, thats not good. Is it just leaking from the filter seal?

 

I hope so. I tightened it. Now out for some rides, and then checking after. That was just from idling in my driveway.

Also, i missed the pitbull stand. A day late, a dollar short

 

dang, yea 40 bucks for a 200 dollar stand wasnt going to last long

was the filter that loose? you get more than a 1/4 turn on it??

check your oil level... you know just incase...

 

40 was my offer. I should have went last night. Oh well.

Ill check the level but i havent touched anything. It turned 1/4 turn with my filter wrench

 

you use a filter wrench to tighten oil filters??

sheesh... thats tight... i would worry about denting damaging a filter that way

 

In this case i did. Otherwise, im taking it to the dealer. Im not worried about damaging it if the seal is already messed up. Thats on the dealership

 

You’ve clearly never driven a Miata. They’re fun as hell. My dad had one that he’d let me use whenever he’d want to borrow my truck so I never complained. Damn thing runs like a go kart. The power to weight ratio make them super fun to whip around corners. At 6’1”, it was tight but never felt uncomfortable- had more of a race seat feel with the car acting as your side bolsters. I felt like Wario in that thing. If I had nothing better to do with my money I’d buy one.

 

Or the previous filters seal stuck to the engine and now the new filter seal is stacked on the old seal.

 

Wouldn't the tech see that though?

 

It's also a brand new bike, I'm assuming it's only ever had the one filter on it?

 

Correct

 

So that’s the factory filter leaking?
