1980 CR80R

[beinkempew1]

I just bought a used (obviously) 1980 CR80R. It leaks gas some (float reset?????) and needs crankcase oil. SO I have a few questions I was hoping you guys with expertise could help me out with!

These all could be answered with a repair manual, but so far I have had sorry luck in finding one for this old of a bike. So if anyone knows where I could find one, help me out!

I was also wondering what kind of oil I should put into the crankcase and what the gas/oil mix was for the fuel? I've seen a few people around who say they have one or some experience with it and was hoping someone could answer this one easily!

I also need the rubber pad that goes around the shift lever... The straight metal to shoe is ruining shoes and my toe!!

As you can probably tell, this is the first motorcycle I've owned, though I'm pretty good with car engines so I'm not a complete NEWB.

Thanks for any help at all you can suggest.

Guess that answers my question in the other thread then...

How To Set Your Motorcycle Carburetor Float Level (more commentary).

This is a good post on how to set your float level. I just wanted to throw that down for you and when I get a little more time I will be sure to help with what else I can too...
Don't get a Clymers manual or anything like that. They are great for general things, but many specifications are wrong.

That's awesome thanks!

What kind of manual should I get??
