How often should I change the oil on my bike?
There are many opinions on the oil and filters to use on the bike. That’s important, but not as important as doing ‘regular’ oil and filter changes. Typical interval is 3k miles. I run it a little longer because I use synthetic oil and larger auto size filters. One guideline to follow is to check the API label on the back of the oil container.
What do I need to get oil out of my bike?

What’s the best way to change an oil filter?
Fill the filter with oil. Go slow to give the air a chance to bubble out. No need to fill it all the way. 2/3 full is fine. Dab your finger in oil and lightly lube the filter gasket with it. Install the new filter. Only install an oil filter hand tight. Basically, after the gasket hits, turn it another ½ turn.
