So, happy to be put right here, maybe this is completely normal.
I'm getting quite a strong smell of petrol from the oil when I check it.
I've done about 500 miles since I brought it of mostly decent length rides (last was 104 miles), and the oil was changed by the dealer prior to this.

Im about to have my 2nd service done, bike has 5000km on it.
I want to put the best stuff in there and stay within recommended oil spec, so 10w30 or 10w40.
I know there are many opinions on this.
Right now im thinking of buying some castrol 10w30, but should i get full or semi synthetic ?
I...
Sorry if this is redundant. I just picked up a '19 cbr650r and did the usual "new to me" maintenance. Clean/ lube chain, adjust tension and change oil and filter. I do my own maintenance on a triumph Bonneville but this is my first CBR. My issue is that the manual states 3 quarts capacity...
Hello folks,
I recently did oil and filter change and made sure I put correct amount of oil.
However after first long ride, i have noticed oil leaking from dip stick. Thought I might have put too much oil , I did take some out and again check oil level with bike in upright position , it was...
Hi everyone,
A new owner from down under (Australia) of 2019 CB650F.
After the first service was done by the dealer @ 1200 kms last January, I replaced the oil with Castrol Power 1 Racing 5W40 full synthetic @ 4750 kms yesterday.
The oil put in there by the dealer must be cheapest oil they...
Hi lads,
I got my bike for nearly a year already. I am about to reach 4000 miles or 6400kms (I rode mostly on weekends). 95% of my ridding session is in the city with no rough terrains. There maybe a few times I hit some decent holes which I nearly crash + I ussually go hard on the rev when the...
Just ordered my CBR 650R 2019 oil dipstick. Cause I'm a cheapskate, and I'll save oil.
The 2019 dipstick is longer, and the older CB/CBR650F can also use less oil too like the 2019 model.
Will post pics between the two, once I get it.
Want to save $ and weight?

Hello all, did an oil change last week and was intrigued to see if the sump plug had gripped anything after a year and 4,000 miles. The magnet is quite narrow but still a fair bit of junk on it.
Anyone else use one? Have opinions on their benefit or pictures after use?
Didn't enjoy trying to...
Hi guys and girls,
Would need a help little if someone had the same problem,
Few days ago I noticed that my oil and coolant, at the same unidentified spot leaks, on the bottom at the oil filter, figured might be a worn seal at the filter, changed it and still leaks somewhere above the filter...
I have a 2014 CBR650F can I use synthetic oil and if so which one would be the best? I’m getting ready to get a service done. Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere.
Hey guys,
I was watching a YouTuber with a CBR650F having issues with K&N Oil Filters leaking at the weld where the tightening nut is. He's lucky he didn't wipe out when oil was gushing all over his rear tire. I have to check my filters when I get home today.
