2006 CB250.  Just purchased this for my wife's entry-level bike.

It has 6,600 miles, and I'm going to do some basic maintenance to it.

All I have is the owner's manual, which provides sketchy info.  Is a PDF of the Service manual available somewhere for download?

About the oil, 1.6Qt - Seriously?  Wowza - okay.   Lol   No filter?  Am I missing it or is there really no filter?   Headscratch

No filter.  There is a screen in there somewhere that you can clean, but not really needed.  

It's slow with awful brakes.  Perfect for a beginner.

I can be found on any twisty backroad in SE OH or WV.

I changed the oil yesterday, freshened the gas, and put 30 miles on it.

It's a hoot!   Slow, yeah.  brakes - what brakes??  But fun!! Hell yeah.

It's light as a feather, and fun to revv.  My wife's gonna have a ball learning on this one.

Throw some soft luggage on it and tour that little sucker!

Just stick to the back roads so you don't burn the motor

Neutral is commonly impossible to find while at a stop with the engine running.

Common?  Adjustment?
