I can see the bigger picture here.
I can see the logic in regular changes.
But it only comes into play if you keep the same bike from birth il death.
Buy a 10 year old bike that has already been abused then it wont make much difference.
treating a bike to death only to sell it 2 years later to someone who abuses it rotten is pointless.
Most folk have longevity in mind.
Most folk end up selling the bike after a few years so why did they bother their arse with it so much.
Personally i change the oil once a year regardless of mileage but I'm only a summer rider.
Once a year....& thrash it all year 8)

Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
