TRMN8TR Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Ok I can't wait any longer. I figured someone would've been talking about this by now.So I missed last round and that will be the only one. I'm back this time and I'm already signed up for the usual. Trackday Saturday and SBK 600 race 1, 2, and Mini 20 on Sunday. I've had a lot of time between round 5 and 7, so I'm pumped and ready to go. The bike is clean and had all its maintenance done and I even had time to work on the Red Dragon. Had to stack a couple exhaust gaskets in there (I guess tolerances on Chinese scooters are a bit large?) but it no longer sounds like a harley. Who's coming, and who's getting married or has some other lame excuse for not making it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRMN8TR Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Time to dump oil down the side of the engine, or change the filter as some call it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcat6183 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Out as of now, weekend before the biggest race of the year and believe we are running 2 different tracks that weekend. The second track being the warmup for the following weekends race, the crown jewel of the season.Sounds like it will be difficult to control all the power of the red dragon!Brandon, for reference wedding is Sept 29th, and that's an off weekend. I do plan to be at Beaver the 22nd, for both days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRMN8TR Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Is it really that difficult for you to place something under the filter?Is it really that difficult for Kawi to put the filter somewhere it doesn't pour oil down the engine? Just sayin... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue03636 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 They put it there so they didn't have to run extra coolant lines just for the oil. Not saying they couldn't have found a better spot but it's really not that big of a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Yea and I place something under the filter and the oil runs into a catch pan. Wow, that was tough.Then you should know that there is already a stupidly small plastic "funnel" under it already, that's obviously useless. You'll have to provide photographic proof that it's "that easy". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue03636 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Next time I change it I will take a pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I'm fully expecting to see the entire side of the engine to be covered in plastic wrap.That would be super hilljack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue03636 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Nope, just a form-a-funnel placed under the filter, cardboard works too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRMN8TR Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I'm sure it is "that easy" but I enjoyed watching Jinu dump oil down his engine the first time and get frustrated, and then telling him Kevin ripped him off and sold him some poorly engineered, bts piece of crap. You guys are totally missing the point! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
