My 2008 FZ1 is now 5 years old and it done 5060miles and i just done it 5th oil + oil Filter change yesterday.. :eek

If you can afford it fella you can never change the lube and filters often enough. Well done, a bit OCD for me though.
You only do 1k/year!!! You really need to get out more!

Took the bike for a spin around the island yesterday afternoon for the first time this year and just got struck behind a car/bus/lorry/etc all doing a top speed of around 20 to 25mph all the way around :wall
Now I remember why I almost completely given up riding over here.. :'(
