First time in a long time it started dripping oil again
Went in for a look and oil sitting in tube up to second bolt head on left of the picture.
Looked at the "special" breather valve in the end...

I figured paying $200+ dollars for dropping the oil and giving the bike the once over, which I do every second day myself, was a bit of a rort so I have started doing the "servicing" myself.

Today...

For anyone interested or considering using the above crowd at this stage I give them the thumbs up.
Every step of the way had tracking for the items so I saw them arrive at depot in China, leave...

Path of least resistance is a corded rattle gun and witness marks
My knees, back and knuckles will thank me I am sure

UPDATE

Just got the email, all looks promising so far

Freight ended up being CHEEEEEEP so smiles all round there.


and yes, in my Prepaid wallet (whatever the hell that is) I have

Had a quick look, there were CFMoto 650tk parts there

Bikerdoc, how did you "lock" the CVT so as to do the final torque of the nuts on the CVT?
According to my interpretation of the manual the front is 60~65N.m and rear is 70~75N.m

There is mention...

For anyone else in Oz wanting parts I got onto a mob called EZBuy as mentioned above.
Placed the order for Belt, rollers and 4 filters , all matching part numbers and delivered it came to $284.07aud...

And you have to ask, why would you change belt size mid way through a model run?

Bloody freight is expensive.
How is it that I can buy countless bits of crap from China on ebay and freight is free or almost nothing but when I want to buy something I actually want is going to...

But is it the right belt?

The part number from the CFMoto parts list is 01AD - 053000 NOT 01AO - 053000
the length according to the dealer here in Oz and bikerdoc is 903 x 22.6 NOT 916 x 22.3...

The elusive Mitsuboshi belt in a CFMOTO bag from one supplier
Still works out at $175aud
A 3mm bigger one to suit other 250cc bikes are about $150 cheaper

Well I don't need auto folding mirrors, I don't need self opening fuel caps, I don't need 3 different transmission modes, I don't need a lever operated brake, a strut to hold up the seat, a security...

Well, like bikerdoc said in post #75
You didn't deny this and any company would do the same on a vehicle that had been treated hard


Not on this model but I have on others...

See, I disagree there.
Before I bought mine I rode various bikes in the same dollar range, so second hand and aging Yamaha Majesty, Honda Forza, various Sym's a 400 burgman and a Tmax 500 and while...

Looking at some of the coinage being asked for a bike exhausts, let alone custom, it'd probably be cheaper to sell the jetmax and buy a 650 burgman with similar klms


Not if those are the only...

Hi, is it worth doing anything with the standard exhaust?

Aftermarket in Australia is not justified but I have seen some claiming drilling several extra holes in the back face, I guess to bring...

I had grown to live with this but today I am concerned no more.
The brake hose on the left side has a metal spiral, spring type cover on it
When I hit a sharp bump like a driveway edge it bangs...

It was these videos that put me onto that particular light

Yeah OK thanks for that and on to plan B as I don't really want to go ripping guards off and buying more bulbs.
As its really only for an occasional short trip, not a regular thing by any stretch...

Hi,
I take it that these bulbs were H4, not HS1 as per original fitment?
About to do the same and as I have a set of 55 watt H4's sitting in a box was considering using them.
Have you had any...

Still loving mine, best bang for buck 200, 300cc scooter by a country mile in my opinion and I have ridden them all now.

The battery drainage issue on the newer models seems to be fixed, I was...

Does anyone have any idea where to find the fan relay?

As I rolled into the driveway today after a longish ride I got a slow red followed by 5 fast so a 15 code which is "Short circuit to battery'...

Amazing amount of space under seat
Thats a 30 can box of 375ml cans with space to spare.
I wish we could get one of these in Vietnam, fill it up with ice a dozen cans and a couple of Banh Mi and...

With the front shocks, after reading countless posts about various breeds of bikes I am not 100% convinced it is actually the shock but perhaps a hose or something hitting something???
I need to...
