I'm guessing that will be when it cools down to like 95. You don't want to use any oil that says "Energy conserving" in the API donut on the label. That oil has friction modifiers that will toast the clutch. Some people say you have to use motorcycle specific oil. Others use car oil. Your call on that. But go with a known brand. No money saved in ruining a motor using junk oil. Changing it at 3000 miles is a little soon IMO. Do a search here for oil and start reading. You'll get lots of opinions on what works.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #94445 javawave (User) Over 16781 good days in a row and counting Platinum Boarder Posts: 3214 Re:add on's 5 Months, 2 Weeks ago   went to Syn yesterday, too early to tell if it helped or not.   Logged     \" A mind full of judgment has little room for wisdom\"   The administrator has disabled public write access. #94496 JHouse (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 204 Re:add on's 5 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I've changed my synthetic twice in the first 3000 miles. But that was just once every 5 years.   Logged     Does this bike make me look fat?

Thought about going synthetic in the cage; almost 150k miles.   Logged     Sig pic deleted - larger than 50 kb   The administrator has disabled public write access. #94591 jorgez28 (User) EVERYONE FALLS OFF ONCE !
