Service Items (Air Filter / Plugs / Oil) - recommendations?
#5
Been using this oil for quite a while now and it's been fine, plus a very good price. I thought I'd try the fully synthetic and I will stick with it now, but they do also sell the same brand in semi synthetic if you want it.

As for the air filter, I'm a big fan of the K&N. The noticeable difference to me was a much crisper throttle response, and the bike does feel like it's breathing easier.
I wouldn't buy too much into the recommended 50K cleaning period though, I do mine once a year on a hot summers day so it can dry quickly and naturally, and I actually clean it using washing machine powder in a bucket of lukewarm water, as it has been recognised as having similar properties as the K&N cleaning spray. I still use the proper K&N spray on oil after it's dry though.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
