hi there stanboy,

do u use motul 5100 or motul 300 for your engine oil?? just visited the website and it seems that there are 2 different kinds...think 300 is for competition right??? and which do u think is better(300 or 5100??)

[shoei]

Review of the oil ??

Mine does not have a washer too.. Think as long no leak, its ok lor. Btw mine 1st hand. no washer attached. last time work as pizza rider, the CG also dun have washer lor..

[HondaSuperFourHSF]

That is a lock washer. It is use to lock your screw it incase it come loose. some people will call it spring washer. Also easy to unscrew the screw and protect the hole. Hope this help

[hachi]

There is a washer as I buy from FJT for $1 each. I got one time my washer spoil and they CHARGED MI $5 for it. Now I go school and take M12 washer that was the same size. I think it can last mi a life time.
