How often do you guys do the oil change?

-What oil and filter do you guys use?
OIL
Regular
Semi synthetic
Full Synthetic

Filter
-OEM
-K&N

 

Oil changes @ 200 600 1200 2000 and every 1000 after that.

Mineral oil for first two changes and synthetic after that

Filter on first 3 chagnes and every other change after that. Filters are mix of OEM and other. Will probably go stainless soon just to save the hassle of shipping filters into Guam.

Just my opinion and schedule. Take a look at everyone elses and then make your own.

I change the oil out at least once a year or every 3k miles. If I have gone off-roading, then I change it sooner. I use Mobil1 4T full synthetic motorcycle oil 10w-40 and a Fram filter. I would prefer to use Royal Purple MaxCycle 10w-40, but I can't justify the means of paying $16 a quart when I can get the Mobil1 4T for $8 or less.

 

Every 500 miles. I use Kawasaki oil and filter. I beat my bike hard tho...

 

Every 700mi Honda full synthetic oil and Honda filter (same as my friends xl600r filter). Honda is closer than the Kawi dealer and the syn. oil does help it shift smoother.

 

k&n filter number 112, maxima syn-blend oil, every 1000.

 

Wow so it looks like its common to change the oil anywhere from 500-1000 miles.

Thanks everyone.

 

I thought we were supposed to change the filter every time we do an oil change.

 

2500 Km give or take. New filter every time.
Motul 5100 oil is good stuff according to my local shops race team mech'. He puts it in the safari and enduro bikes. Good enough for them.......!

 

most people its every other, and by most i mean a lot. just ask matthes...
