so if posting this and asking for some input on something that is easy to search isnt beating a dead horse i dont know what is.. i have not found exactly what im looking for so maybe this will help others.....
04 gsxr600
Got this bike a week ago and when it is started it will idle fine and than after about 30 seconds drop to a bubbly sporadic idle and die out....after restarting it will come out of it and idle fine.. not knowing what it was i decided to check the oil and i found of course milky oil...garage temp was around 38 degrees.
drained out wat was left in the antifreeze resivour and this is what i found...some type of jelly floating...after letting sit they seperated out...if it was oil wouldnt it float?
New to the whole gsxr thing but decent with cars...headgasket? heard waterpump seal but what about the sporatic idle on initial start up? i feel it is a simple fix as im mechanically inclined gramp with a garage and dad with a bikeshop want to do this without them tho to much of a hassel hoping not a cracked head:banghead help would be appreciated
would that cause the sporadic idle at startup? i am going to get a compression tester and leakdown tester in a little bit and see what i cant figure out

I just replaced my oil pan and oil strainer('07 600). The strainer basically just slides into the opening and there is grooved stay. The rubber strainer didn't seem particularly firm in place, with a good O ring washer also installed. Does the pan offer any support once installed. Thanks a bunch!
Sorry for another oil post.....
I just did an oil change on my track only K8 and have filled with full synthetic but not started the bike yet as I'm a fraction short.
I've just had 4L of Castrol Power1 delivered and it's Semi-syn. 1st thought was to send back but after a bit of Google it looks...
Dear Mates, hope you are fine, I was hoping to get some advice regarding which engine oil I should use on my Suzuki Gixxer 155? I've 5000+ kms running and previously used Shell Advance Ultra 10w40 Full Synthetic. Hoping to get your expert solutions fast.
Thanks in advance. :woot
