Aloha Gents, 

 

I was not paying attention to the shop and the receipts.. but don't you normally when changing oil, change the filter?    The wife call the shop and they said, the fllter does not need to be change, only at 10K intervals.. hmmm. I am debating whether to go to another shop and have do this right RnR both Oil and Filter.. and as I have been informed, TELL the FILTER needs to be changed as well.. Papa.. words of wisdom to spread?

Bike CBR 300R 

Don't know what the book says, but

Shell Ultra Advance 100% synthetic oil & filter

would be papa's recommendation Grasshopper.

Lazada:

 

Always with the filter to make sure that you are on the safe side.

Time to do your oil change by yourself. 

 

 

 

Still a bit of flooding in NST especiall when my second shop is located.. will do. thanks.. I could not find the specs in the owner's manual.

Thanks for the insight.. yes, I know... but I learned my lesson.. I will watch the mechanics.. especially new ones working on the bike.. Thanks for the video.. Cheers Mate on the pegs.

 

 

According to the maintenance schedule which i found on Google you are supposed to change the oil and filter every 12,000kms

I assume you requested an oil change before 12,000kms? Then the shop did just do what they were told by you, changed the oil, the 12k km service were probably not due yet, thus they didn't think about changing the oil filter.

If you can't or not want to do a bike service yourself OK.

Taking your CBR to a shop every year or 10,000 k or less tor an oil change you need to tell them what you want done.

Like change the filter as well.

Change the washer on the sump drain plug to.

When they have finished :-

Check you oil level.

Check for oil leaks.

Check your chain.

Check your tyre pressures.

The CBR300 and CRF250L have basically the same engine...oil and filter every 12k
