Default I changed my oil on my ninja 250

I finally changed the oil and filter on my 09 Ninja 250 for the first time. It doesnt leak and runs great. Must have done it right no parts left over. I didnt use a tourqe wrench just hand tightened and 1/4 turn no problems.

Good job, check it again in a few days, just to make sure it is tight enough

Default Mobil 1 oil products table

I like keeping stuff like this in a notebook in the garage for reference.
It's interesting to note the 4T moto oil level of phosphorus and zinc. Saves wear on your high friction points internally. Compare against some of the other brands.
