Anyone know why the difference between the European specified 6000 mile oil change recommendation and the US spec 4000 mile oil change? they both recommend Yamalube 10w40 as the primary oil. Just curious, as far as I know the bikes are the same.....

Humans are silly. We like even numbers. In the EU, 10k kilometers is about as even as you get. And no one would buy that you needed to change the oil/filter at 5000 kms.stevent said:6000 miles. it shows kilometers too, specifically every 10,000 km or 6,000 mi.
I came in here to ask if anyone was doing any analysis or if it was "I feel" facts.EricV said:I actually test my oil. It's never even close to bad at 4k, just has some suspended combustion waste in it.
