    2023 KLR650 oil type, 1st change, analysis etc..

    Changed mine at 440 miles. Rotella T6 15w40, MA MA2 Will change again at 1500. Then 1200 mile intervals with filter every other time. $4 a quart why not? Shifting was vastly improved immediately and began to get real slick at around 1000 miles. Clutch is smooth and no lurching when putting it...

    212cc Pressure Washer fuel filter?

    There is a product that comes in a very small pressurized can that has an attachment on it that allows you to pressure feed some oil into the water pump for winter storage that I use. Works great! Sorry can't remember the name but it is easy to find. Do a search....

    Rotella T6 5w40 OK for very short intervals?

    Like I said, these bikes are being broken in so a couple of extra oil changes at 1000 mile intervals are not a big deal. I feel confident that the 5w40 will not shear much in this short interval. Both motors are liquid cooled.

    Wife has a big 1000cc SXS. Pavement use only. Always gets up to full temp (fan runs) on every ride. The oil that is in it is syn of the proper grade.

    Valvoline VR1 10w30 Dino

    Had some 5 year old unopened VR1 Racing in stock and decided to use it in my Cub Cadet 22 HP Kohler. Holds 2 qts. - changed at 50 hours along with filter.
