Normal Amount Of Deposit On Oil Drain Plug?

  1. Hi all, have just changed the oil on my 959. This is only the second oil change I’ve done in my ownership, and I can’t remember how it looked last year, but just wondering if this is a ‘normal’ amount of deposit on the magnetic drain plug? Bike was a road bike, now a track bike. After a few miles on the road she did three track days last year. Cheers!

  2. Looks like bits of gear dogs, you been a bit clumsy with the box? Missed shifts, false neutrals etc?

  3. Ah okay. Not great but glad it’s not worse. Yes I hit loads of false neutrals when I first got it. Had a HM quickshifter on my previous bike which seemed a bit more intuitive. Have adjusted the shift lever on the 959 now with lightech rearsets so hopefully no more damage is to be done by my clumsy left foot! Thanks for your help Maxrundown
     
  4. No, completely fine! That amount is minimal.
