• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    okay so i finished the oil change today as that was only from the tank. and there were some flakes. They were small and about 10-15 not too many... compared to last time. @PMK im going to give what you said a shot and see what happens. It is indeed aluminum though, maybe from the front cylinder...

    i removed the oil screen as asked before and it did have some metalic oil on it, however this is my first time ever removing it. but nothing other than that and that was only on the shaft area not on the screen itself. Im going to change the oil again and ride.

    Why couldn’t it be? There was ALOT of metal shavings before. This time there is NONE just the metallic look in the oil. Nothing was picked up by the magnet.

    Finally got to changing the oil, did less than 30 miles on the bike. It looks a little shinny but no actual shavings and nothing picked up with magnet. Just remains of old problem clearing out? The specs are bubbles, took picture right after i drained it. The swirls are what im referring to as...

    Okay one little thing @pmk. Figured out to get in reverse to put it in garage without pushing up steep driveway. after i got it inside i noticed some white smoke coming from exhaust. Wasnt super thick or anything, bike was left off a little over an hour and only had 2 bars on the gauge. Could...

    Did a short 10 mile run, 6 miles of freeway. Got up to 70 and stayed around 70 everything seemed fine. Only thing I noticed was in low rpms in 1st I heard a tick tick that went with the Roma ONLY when moving and it came right near the shifter. On the road the temp is at 4 bars at idle it stays...

    @freddy Yes but I’m assuming and hoping that it’s from the cams and bearings that were replaced and that most the metal came out and the rest comes out next oil change in a few days-weeks. Currently waiting on the exhaust @krakum1967 before I try/test anything.

    Why would i do that now? It is now starting and running while holding perfect idle. Its just some fine tuning... i dont think a little backfire is worth replacing a whole engine.

    Update and concern: I cleaned or tried to clean the exhaust. still had a little smoke but didnt let it run too long because i am hearing something odd. When i pull on the throttle slowly i hear a hiccup as if its starved for air, but then after the hiccup the rpms jump back to where its supposed...

    I planned on rechanging the oil or at leastr filtering it like you mentioned. I have cleaned out car exausts and whatnot by just running them i didnt know this would be any different but thanks for telling me. I will definitely go get some solvent then. As for this screen, can anyone tell me...

    NO CODES, NO LIMP MODE, IT RUNS!! Bike is now running!!! Still smoking a bit out the tailpipe and from the outside of the pipe, gonna go for a 30 minute ride when i get a chance to try and burn it out. My only concern and this could be because i get paranoid, but the oil looks a little like it...

I then started it and ran it again and smoke started coming out almost after a few moments then I removed I remove the Y connector in back of the exhaust and started it again but this time no...

    I assumed it could be spooge at first but the quickly determined it not to be. i believe its oil and not coolant however i dont know for sure. The leakdown test should tell me once im able to perform it though.

    Can you elaborate, assume i dont know what the scavenge pump is, and how that could cause the smoke. PLEASE And how do i test the the pump is working? im assuming by a little bit of google search that the scavenge pump is a pump that pumps the oil out of the oil res? edit: just watched a video...
