Oil Changes

This oil stuff sounds like trouble. I think it's best I leave it out of my bike. That'll save changeing it every couple of hours incase it goes off.

Seriously though, different bikes/manufacters give different limits for a reason. Because each engine is different, revs differently, wears in different ways, uses an ammount of oil, longer oil paths, different ammounts of heat, etc, etc.

Example:
Suzuki SV Engine - Service interval ~4k miles
Triumph Speed Triple - Service Interval ~6k miles
Kwak Z1000, - 6k/km (about 4k miles)

Can't beat a 2-stroke for oil changes Sid! I used to have to fill up my RD400 for a ride to the seaside then again for the ride home!

My mum changed the oil a few weeks ago, the old stuff was a horrible colour and full of lumps. Chips taste much better now the new stuff's in.

That would be the mind probe rays from the sattellites, reading your mind and stealing your thoughts.....
