embarking on the 1st oil change....

I go full synthetic. It's noticeable in the first several hundred miles. And after that seems to feel the same as anything else. I think I'm going with the K&N filter next time though. Do you have to replace it every time? Call me dumb, but isn't most K&N stuff washable?

As with K&N manufacturing filters, they don't. They have another company make them, then weld the nut on the end and paint them white, lol. Honda (and a lot of others) does the same thing. I'm sure most are good otherwise respectable companies wouldn't put their name on them (I guess). If you want a washable oil filter, you can get a Scotts Billet Filter for like $80.

Except in the case of 2-stroke engines or other substantially different set ups, motor oil can be used in bikes just as in cars. Keep in mind that we have a modified Honda Civic engine.
With that in mind, yes you can use Rotella in your bike. I recommend the using the blue jug, NOT the white one. Buy a gallon of that and a filter and you are good to go.
