2014 Triumph tiger 800xc and 2012 Honda NC700X
Flushed new brake fluid in through the rear brakes
Usually flushed every 2-3 years

Tiger:
out - prestone dot 4
in - supertech dot 4
quantity flushed: roughly 60ml

Honda:
out - unknown, presumably honda dealer fluid (PO had the bike serviced prior to selling in 2018)
in - supertech dot 4
quantity flushed: roughly 60ml

Didn't take much to get rid of the cloudy/dark fluid and start flowing clear fluid. I would say that for each bike, by the time i flushed roughly 30ml through, the fluid started coming out clear through the tube. I thought I would have to use 100ml for each brake, but I believe that's overkill. 60ml is more than enough.

Wanted to go 6,000 miles on the ZRX1200 before changing the current Mobil 1 10w40 4T. Got to 5,345 miles and decided to change oil and filter tonight after a nice evening ride. I change the filter every other oil change, this was the second run so it was changed.

Went with the same oil, Mobil 1 10w40 4T and Hi-Flo filter. This oil just flat works and shift quality does not fall off, period. This will be the third run with 10w40 4T, never ran any previous brand of oil more than one OCI. Finally settling in on what a good analysis looks like 🏍. Gotta go with what treats you right!

Sample heading off in the next couple days, will post up once it is done.

Lol, I was gonna say the same! Last time I did something like that, the poster at that time told me to stop being a forum police. I said if I posted something for an F150 in a motorcycle forum, I would want someone to point it out in case I had made an honest mistake.
