R33 Series 2 Done 400 Kms Since October.

[steveo_r33]

Hey guys.

My r33 has been waiting for me to get my license back which is still around 6 months away, do you guys thing that I am due for a service?

It has only done 1 tank of fuel since i bought it in october.

(I know i shouldnt let the one tank of fuel get this old)

but i filled it up when i got it and figured id use it in a months time.

so now i will fill up a quarter at a time if its only being driven this much! 400 kms over 5 - 6 months.

when i got it it was direct from japan and went through compliance and full service.

what sort of service do you think she needs! cheers fellas

As long as you are starting it and letting it run for a bit every 2 or 3 weeks, maybe take it for a drive so your battery isn't flat - than i'd say nothing..

I honestly doubt you need to service it, check your oil, see how clean it feels and take it from there, just service it when you get to say 3,000kms.. otherwise what's the point.. you haven't driven it..

oh ok.. yeh i take it for a drive every 2 to 3 weeks to let the drive train loosen up rather than starting it on the spot..

i just thought maybe it could need a service because the fluids were like aging inside my engine lol..

but they do say service every 5000 kms Or 6 months which ever comes first.

If I were you, I'd get someone "with a licence" to drive it once a week, and just before the licence comes back do a 5000k service (oils and filters, etc).
