I have 70 miles onboard and waiting for the RP to arrive. I also bought a magnetic drain plug. Won't ride it untill the oil is changed.

RE: FULL SYNTHETIC.

I've been reading up on the synthetic oils and had a quick question. I have almost 10K on mine. Should I stick with the same oil or is it ok to switch to synthetic? I read in one of the post that if you have too many miles it might actually mess up the engine if you switch to synthetic. Thanks for all the help

I heard things that if you put synthetic, you can't go back and stuff like that. Synthetic just sound better to me and there's a lot of oppinions out there.

RE: FULL SYNTHETIC.

the thing about syntic oil is once you change you have to stick with synthic oil unless you get an engine flush. but after you feel the difference with syntic oil you won't want to change back
