Hey guys, just did my first oil/oil filter change at 157 miles...The manual calls for 3.7 quarts which is 3 qt/22.4oz...Well, I poured in 3 qt/16oz and it was over the full line...Started it up and rode the bike about 5 miles then parked it and waited several minutes...Now the oil level was right at Full or maybe just a hair under so it had declined just slightly...Yet, the new bike jitters made me paranoid about not getting that extra 6 oz for a full 3.7qt as the manual calls for...So I added another 4 oz and now I ony have a little bubble at the top of the sight glass but I'm still 2.4oz shy of a full 3.7qt.....New bike jitters really bugging me...
Anyone else noticing that 3.5 quarts puts it over the full line ?
Also....I noticed some very fine metallic particles in the old oil after just 157 miles so it might be a good idea to do a couple of early oil changes to get that stuff out of your motor for those of you thinking about waiting till 600 miles..
