So I did an oil and filter change this morning when I arrived at work, since I already have about 3500 kms on my baby since my first ride back in April.  I have read on www.gtamotorcycle.com and www.advrider.com, that some riders use SHELL Rotella T in their bikes.  It is a HDEO that is mainly used in diesel motors.  I got a 1 Gal. jug for $20.  I'll see how it works later today when I go home.

Also there is Rotella T6 which is a full synthetic oil.  This one is the one they say is the best that can be had.  Cheaper than AMSOIL and Mobil1 synthetics.  T6 costs about $30 here in Canada for 1 Gal.
Keep it upright and she'll always be happy!
