oil in airbox
Had a look to see what condition the air filter is in last night and noticed that on the edge near the seat theres a little bit of oil on the gauze. Also a small amount of residue in the airbox.
Is this something to worry about? and could it be the reason for my puff of smile at high revs the other week? |

Re: oil in airbox
filter could probably do with a change if it isn't new. A little smidgeon of oil in the airbox is normal though
