The recommended oil change interval is 100 hours, 1000 miles, or
every six months, whichever comes first. Suggested break in oil

vere use includes continuous duty in dusty or wet conditions, and
cold weather riding. NOTE: Severe use cold weather riding is all
riding below 10° F, and riding between 10° F and 30°F when most
trips are slow speed and less than 5 miles. Be sure to change the
oil filter whenever changing oil
Oil may be hot. Do not allow hot oil to come into contact
with skin as severe burns may result.
