hi friend. i will try that tomorrow morning, the bike has only done a little over 5000 miles, wouldnt like to say if it had been looked after regarding oil changes etc. i bought it last thing last yr, the condition of the bike is good for its yr, basicly i dont no much about the bike yet, but i did notice that it did struggle to get in to the gears before the end of the last year, ive drained the oil changed all filters 2wks ago, and nipped out on it on sunday , but was alot worse since i serviced it..
