Well, come september, i'll be in Okinawa Japan for 3 years. My question is what would everyone recomend doing to keep the motor from rotting away? Im gonna store the bikes at my father in laws place, hes a pretty good mechanic, but wont ride em around or anything to keep em in check cause hes a harley rider. My buddy put mystery oil in his oil and gas before he went, and when he got back it fired right up, and ran a little round for about 15 minutes. But that was only for like 10 or 11 months, not 36.


Should i put some of that fuel preservation crap in it, or just purge all the fluids complelty?

 

Just leave it at my house il take good care of it lol

 

^ no ****, get rid of it and get a new one when you get back i'll buy it ..maybe what kind of bike

 

I would sell it 3years is a long time

 

Are you in the Armed forces im geussing? Thats a long time to be in Japan

 

no. No one likes the 2006 R6s and the FZRs anyway
Nah my father in laws gonna hold onto it and my car and my wifes bike. to much of a hassel and to much lostmoney.

Yea, see above

Yea, marines. Just renlisted and taking my wife with me. Im gonna buy a bike while im over there, and a couple to store beofe i leave. Im gonna start up a shop when i get back. Im getting like 68 gs now from the marines, and about 8s goin on new bikes to play with over there and when i get back.

I can take the bikes, my weightlimit is 3000 lbs to fly over there. I want to take a ******* cause the roads are coral and slippery as ****, and theres so much salt in the air rust, filter, and a ton of other problems come up

 

**** that i lived on camp kinzer for 3 years & 3 years on camp butler...been stationed there 2 times and it was the ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Take the bike with you or you will regret it when you get there!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

I got a buddy over there in Japan somewhere he has been ther for like a year and half but i think he was suppose to be there for a total of three he is in the marines to..He says theres alot of prostitutes lol

 

so true!!!!!!!!!! lots of me love u long time!!!!!!!!

 

Ha Ha i think i would have to buy atleast one??????

 

yea im gonna take one... ill be on camp foster

 

3 choices

1) leave it with me, i'll ride it every day! promiss!

2) have your father in law r wutever start it up an let it run for 5 r 10mins a few times a month, add sum fuel stabilizer and keep tank full so it dont rust. damn dont you have any boyz that live close so they can take ur **** out and ride da fuckoutta it!

3) sell it, in 3 years it will be way whack!

 

u guys cant take ur bikes with you? valuwise it's a better option to sell the bikes and cars depending on the cars years milages n stuff. or just be careful that they don't "dissapear" while u have full coverage insurance

 

Yea, my inlaws have a 2 lot yard, and a shop in the back. They;re gonna stay in the shop. As far as the car, its an 07 Focus we just bought, so if we were to sell it, wed eat alot of cash on it. I mean, its a girly car but its a good car, and what were planning on doing, is paying a big chunk of it with my bonus, and then pay the rest over time to boost our credit. Us both being young we dont have credit and are trying to build it.

 

id dump all the fluids..

 

Just leave it on the lot on Pendleton, they'll take care of it for ya Not really, just kidding. I think that if you dump the fluids ... wouldn't all of your seals dry out and possibly cease the engine up? I had the same problem, bought a truck right before they told me I was leaving ... the best thing I can come up with is selling the bikes if you don't ship em.

P.s. Go check out Pavlov's Dogs ... they f'n rock! :YEAH

 

yea **** leaving it on pendleton. im a marine so i know how marines are.

Espically at tmo. All those guys are waiting to get out, so theyd be like "Hey man! this kid doesnt get back for 3 years, and im out in TWO WEEKS! lets take it for a spin"

**** that.

But yea i thought about the seals... i think im gonna sell one of them, take one, and leave one in bakersfield with the pops in law. Hell start it up once a week for me cause hes always working on bikes. There were 2 bikes on here i was thinkin about getting but dunno yet. I want a 929 and nags was selling his. I might leave that with my dad in florida cause he too works on bikes and would baby it for me while im gone

 

Not to mention ... have you seen the fu*king vehicles that get left at TMO, it's like a fenced-in grass(or dirt) lot! My buddy left his there for 7 months when we went to Iraq back in '03, when we got back you couldn't see the paint on it because of the dust!!!

Anyway, I agree with a few of the guys on here ... three years is just too long for a bike to sit or any vehicle for that matter.

 

but the thing is im gonna come home as much as possible and need a ride
