[QUOTE="Brodie, post: 700369, member: 3372"] I'm inclined to agree. When I brought my bike home from the dealer, I changed my oil at around mile 50. I was surprised at the silvery sheen that spent oil had in it. That was suspended aluminum particles flowing through the oil filter. My reasoning was to mix it up really well, then get rid of it quickly. The second oil change at 600 miles was a lot clearer. If you plan for it, it won't be such a big deal out on the road. Go the Wall Mart route. An oil/ filter change is about as basic as you can get on the bike - If you can figure out which end of the wrench to grasp you're half way there. :rolleyes: Brodie [/QUOTE]
