Whats up? Got an opinion question here. I am about to wrap the bike up for winter and am due for an oil change. Normally I leave the seasons oil in the bike for the winter and change in the spring, but this year I was thinking that maybe I will change it now. My thinking is that over the oils life this summer it's PH acidity probably went up due to mixing with combustion by products. Now, if I leave this oil in for six months then that will be six months of the acidic oil kind of getting at my engine internals. Would it not be a wiser idea to put nice fresh oil in now? I will be using Amsoil and that stuff is good for 1 year. I drain my furl tank and carbs and do not start my bike for the duration of the winter. Anyone have a thought on this.

 

I thought that oil was a hot topic....come on. Get your mind off the economy and talk lubricants!

 

cant tell you to be honest i dont let mine sit all winter long i ride as much as i can.

i just turned over

57K on the clock
on my 94 900rr

 

I say for $30 in oil what is it going to hurt?
