when to change oilo and filter!!!

[dantheta2man]

Ok guys since i had my busa I have been doing my oil changed every 2,000 miles... well atleast thats what a mechanic from the suzuki dealer recomeneded me but I was looking at the suzuki repair manuel and it said diffrent... here i will quote it for you guys

sorry guys i was trying to get it up but cant figure it out... but the book says to change it every 4,000 -in 6 months... should i be changing my oil every 4,000 mile or stay at 2,000

?

also my other question is, were can i get ionized bolts (or color bolts) to replace the ones i have now??? I would like to get some red ones and replace all the stock bolts on the frame and so on??? any link will be helpful...thanks guys!!!

At 600, and every 3500

Nothing wrong with 4,000. I change it every 3,000.

700 miles, then every 1,500.

That's just ridiculous, but its your money. Not having to follow a warranty service schedule, running full synth and changing oil and filter every 5,000 miles is also fine. Otherwise, why not follow the manufacturers schedule?

3500-4000 and you only have to do the filter every other oil change

I was thinking of going to full syn at 1500-2000 miles. Than going every 3-3500 miles.

This okay?

Which full syn would you guys recommend?

Why change it at or less than a dino oil service interval if you're going to full synth?

"They" say you can double the miles on full synthetic. 6K. Of course you need to think about how you ride and the conditions you ride in IMHO.

I switched to full synthetic but I change mine at 2000k. The reason?...... cause I'm bored and have no life.

At that rate I would be changing it every week to every other week thats crazy.

On syn oil. 5000-6000 is OK. But the start of every riding season. If 5000 is not hit.
