« on: May 08, 2015, 03:13:36 PM »
Hi guys,just pulled the baby out after a long winter. I put the bike away in dec with new oil...300 miles on oil to be exact.  Do you think i need to change it again? Oil is mobil 1 5w50 and a k and n oil filter. Thanks for any input. Be safe out there everyone

I use M-ONE 15/50 for all of my vehicles. No I would not change it. I change my oils once a year, unless I put a tremendous amount of miles on one of them.  :-*

Your not really supposed to have synthetic oil for the first 1000mi on a new engine, not too sure if it will matter though.

No.. dont change it. You will only be wasting money. Mobil 1 is really good oil and will stand the winter really well. 300 miles is nothing.  :)
