    It doesn't look like spark pinging in your case. If you are able to listen it in idle once engine is hot, it may be SHIM noise. Spark pinging occurs mostly under load and when motor is hot i.e. while pulling throttle after upshifts or going uphill.

    You can get your valve clearances checked if not done. If valve clearances are towards lose side, but still under specified limits, just ignore the noise and ride on. Also, get the CCT checked and let us know.

      Yes, 350 ml in each fork of motul 20w works better.
      This time is used 331 ml, and it doesnt feel right.

        My friend's bs4 model feels kind of underpowered at 3-5k rpm compared to mine but his bike gives 30~ mileage anfd mine gives 23~ for almost same route.
        Thats strange. My previous 2011 model cbr gave me around 35 km/l , in almost every conditiones. Riding style matters.

            Not 175 for sure. Its more than 300. I am not sure about the exact quantity

              The manual recommends 331, give or take 10 ML extra. 175 is pretty much half the value and you'll only induce more dive and air inside your system. 331 is the recommended for stock OE oil. 350 is to make it a little stiffer. This is why it helps to read the manual, just so we don't get confused.

              Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
              The girl said, 'NO!'


              And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

                  I bought a used bike and never gotvanything above 250km in 10 litres

                  Can you provide tips to increase mileage?

                    Guys could you please rate your experience amongst the following oils:

                    Motul 5100 (all variants that you would have tried)
                    Motul 7100 (all variants that you would have tried)

                    Shell ultra FS
                    Honda Throttle FS

                    I have tried Idemitsu FS 10w40 and didnt like it. This oil is on the heavier/thicker side. When my bike was on Honda Throttle FS, even in winters it started very smoothly without hesitation in first self. but with this oil it takes two selfs in summers and i can feel the difficulty it is taking for the oil to pump and bike firing becoming smooth.
                    Please give your rating to above oils.

                      I think the Honda oil is pretty good. I changed to shell ultra and that's good as well. I'm partial to shell as I use it on all my bikes and car.

                        I'm stuck in 2 choices. 4000 km, non abs, 2015 black color for 80k or 17000 km, tri color, 2014, abs for 70k.

                        Which one should I go for?
                        Tough choice. Good prices. I'd go with the abs one as safety comes first. Plus 17k kms on the cbr is not really much running as the engine is rock solid. Bikes that have not been used/run regularly have their own set of issues imo.

                          It indeed is a tough call between, as The Pain said. I've used almost the entire series of Motul, and it's mostly been 15w50 to 20w50 grades. I'd personally lean towards Shell, there is some difference to the way Shell performs. In my experience with Motul, the oil that'd lean towards and did again and again would be 3100, 5100 and 7100 with 5100 being a fantastic cost effective all rounder. 300V is an overkill and I'd recommend everyone to stay off from 300V.

                          Motul 7100 > Shell Ultra FS > AX7 > 5100 > Honda Throttle FS > 300V

                          Cheers!

                            I have tried the Honda oil, motul 300V, motul 7100 and shell advance ultra. All in the 10W40 series. The motul 7100 and Shell are the best you can get yourself but it comes down to your riding ways. If you are a throttle maniac, you will love the motul 7100 10W40 and if you ride easy then shell will be your best bet.
                            For me, I use Motul 7100 10W40 with K&N oil filter.

                              Hi, is 10w 40 grade compatible with Honda Hornet ? Currently i am using honda mineral oil and i am not facing any issues with it. I've got a bottle of motul 3100, 10w 30 oil. How's it? Have u used it?

                                Hi. No idea about the hornet and neither the 3100. Sorry. If your hornet has a recommended 10W30 then you can use the 10W40 and see for yourself how it works out for you.
