    strange gunk

    ok ok, i shoulda checked earlier, whilst i had the back wheel out today, i noticed a little tube with a plug in the end, ahh i thought my cbr has one of those it,ll need draining, so armed with pliers i pulled the plug out. big mistake about a pint of yukky gunk over my garage floor.
    what effects would this have on the running of my @ with all the crap in it, would it sit in the bottom of the air cleaner box????

    how long has it been since you last drained it, as pint seems an excessive amount i usually only got a small amount whenever i drained mine
    have you checked your air box for any more gunk/residue ?
    as for the running of your @ have you had any proplems ?

    i haven,t drained it since i owned it approx 6mth as it had supposededly been serviced before me purchasing it. on the cbr1000 i only get a few drops out, but on this it came gushing out, gonna check airbox tomoro.
    funnily enough i havnt noticed anything out of the ordinary, but if it was like this when i bought it, i would assume it all to be normal

    Never had much out of mine, a few drops.

    Have you done lots of short runs?
