Try this link.  Fuelly has a ton of vehicles to look at.  For the xCiting, looks like there are 14 currently tracking mileage.

Thanks, MrMike,

I'm a fan of full syn too.  The VFR gets Rotella T-6 5W-40 every 3,000.  The cars get Mobil 1 every 5k.

We'll see how things go before we look into variator weight changes.  There's a whole lot I gotta learn.

Thanks for the welcome everyone!

MaryK - The People 150 has an oil screen, so I'll be changing oil at 1k.  BTW, Yep, the VFR is major fun.  Wanted one in the '80s when I was a broke college kid.  Then marriage, mortgage, kids, etc.  Five years ago I finally got a used '03 for cheap.

Vivo - thanks.  I may go midgrade on the gas (89 octane) with some seafoam.

I'll be checking in from time to time.  Seems the scoots need a bit more TLC than the bigger bikes do.

Take care everyone!

Hello there. 

I am a motorcyclist (Honda VFR800) and now a new Kymco People 150 owner.  (Wife will be the rider.)

Been going over the manual and it surprised me to see 92 octane or better fuel is required.  Is this what everyone runs?

Also, not to start yet another dreaded oil thread, but what does everyone run in this scoot?

Thanks!
