Best not to use fully synth on low mileage bikes as you can risk bore polishing and then burning oil (apparently).
12,000 miles is the usual figure quoted, by which time the piston rings should be fully bedded in.
I change the oil every year whether it needs it or not, and semi-synth is just fine by me.
