It's a bit like women and shoes, they don't really need them, they only have two feet and there's plenty of wear left in the ones they bought years ago, but it's not doing anyone any harm replacing them anyway. 

You mean replacing the women? I think quite a few of us have already done that :-)

Sooo true  :lol
On the oil front I just took my thou in for service but it had had fully synth put in by the Triumph dealer I bought it from and Yamaha stealer told me Yamaha don't recommend fully synth on the 600 or 1000 and if they don't recommend it why use it , so I caved and told em to change the oil , they probably just mugged me off for a few extra £
