MC17 started easy - while covered in ice
Okay, I'm gonna have a little boast here, because it seems like the main issue with cbr250's is starting them. To put this in perspective, I live at the bottom of New Zealand where the daylight hours are very short and we have extremely cold winters.
Anyhow tonight after I finished my job working nightshift I got my 22 year old mc17 started on the first try of the starter using very little choke. I then had to scrape off the ice which was on the seat and wrapped up warmly for the ride home (air temp measured at 0.9 degrees) and had no issues with overheating which also seems to be a problem which occurs regularly with cbr250's.
Boast over now

Yeah, we dont even get 35 degree days here, even in the height of summer. But if we did I'd imagine I'd have some major overheating issues.

And yup it definatley pays to have a well maintained bike, makes it very reliable. Its quite shocking how some people expect there bike to keep running when they do hardly any maintenance on it.
