Just bought this Benelli Leoncino 250 Se abs 2019, 12k mileage from Imotorbike Glenmarie.

Just did a front tire change to Michelin 110/70 R17 for RM260 at glenmarie 55 workshop. Back tire just changed by Imotorbike, but they changed to a wrong size tire at 140/70R17, the original size is 150/60R17. Currently the back tire is rubbing the mud guard🤦. And coolant have been added by myself, due to it was below the "lowest" indicator. I dont know how they said it was fully inspected before selling to customer.😔

Next is engine when idling, the rpm keep going up and down by 500rpm. Tomorrow will have to go fix that, and the tire. Fingerscross can claim back the coolant money i spent.🤣


Also my chain will need some cleaning and lubing, I did saw ipone cleaning kit if that is good... And i need help with cleaning of the rust on the exhaust pipe.

If someone know how to locate the battery for Leoncino 250 please hit me up, i cant find it below the seats.

Dont waste money with branded cleaning kits...just get kerosene n the chain cleaner brush...just make sure its kerosene...some will sell.u turpentine coz it looks n smells the same but theyre not the same. lots of hardware stores dont sell this anymore n some newer, younger generation ones have never even heard of it. Can still be easily found if u look hard enough. Diesel works as well but its a little tougher to get off once ur done.

Chain lube up to u what u wanna use but id recommend WD-40 Specialist Chain Lube. Cheap n actually lasts on the chain.

Exhaust, can use the harpic trick + scouring pad...but do not ever use it on the muffler. Itll eat the mufflers coating and make it look like shit. I learned that the hard way.

Sorry to hear abt the bike...but at least u have a project on ur hands now to slowly get it back to what it should be.

Edit: can give google maps link to this glenmarie 55 workshop? I might need a tire next week

I did look at ipone on shopee, but wd-40 works too? Will it damage the chain or give not enough lube to it?
