Come on, guys, don't nickel and dime on the most important maintenance items. It's cheap, cheap insurance! As you see now I meant that I use synthetic 20/50. 5000 miles on oil change...but at 2500 I change the filter. Yes, better insurance yet.   Logged     04 Midnite Silverado   The administrator has disabled public write access. #100307 tekdiver (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 54 Re:Oil loss at filter change... 1 Month, 1 Week ago   Blackroadie does jacking up the front of the bike lessen the oil spill when swapping out filters?   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/07/14 08:51 By tekdiver.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #100314 Blackroadie (User) If it ain't broke, You ain't ridin' hard enuf !

I have had 2 changes so far this year and most likely I will change again after my vacation next month. I always change it myself on my sport bike but so far I've taken my R* to the dealer to have it changed. I have been looking for a good lift so I can change it myself and save $$. I know I don't need a lift to change it I just hate rolling around on the garage floor too much, its getting harder to get up.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1609 Re:Oil loss at filter change... 1 Month, 1 Week ago   I know what ya mean Moondog.... I do mine without a lift, my knees dont work like they did when i was 20. Cant beat doin' that oil change at home though. Mama Yama dont need any more of my money.   Logged     04 Midnite Silverado   The administrator has disabled public write access. #100384 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 11834 Re:Oil loss at filter change... 1 Month, 1 Week ago   A forklift makes the oil change a breeze.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
