I'm about to do my first oil/filter change at 1,000Km...
It seems bizarre that you then don't have to change the oil 'til 10,000Km and the filter at 20,000Km. The reason for doing the 1,000Km change is that the engine is 'bedding-in' and I find it hard to believe that this process is completely finished at 1,001Km.
All my riding here is hot/dusty and the oil will be taking a severe punishment. So, I'm figuring that I'll fit in a second oil/filter change at 5,000Km and then follow the book.
Any thoughts on service intervals?
