Default Oil Change
Hi,
I have a 07 1000RR with only 900 miles on it, I put motul 300V in it over 2 years ago, but only put less then 100 miles on it. Do I need to change the oil or dose age matter with this oil?
Thanks.

i'd personally change it. moisture, exhaust gasses, etc get "trapped" in the oil

Yeah, on my bikes the manuals usually said something like "600 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first" (not sure if 600 miles was the actual number, but I'm pretty sure it said 6 months max).
