Re: Synthetic Oil Change POLL
Read some where that Synthetic should not be changed until 5,000. Said something about letting the engine seats and gaskets settle before changing. Don't know if this is true, but waited till my 5k service.

Re: Synthetic Oil Change POLL
I recently bought my 07 Sportster with 12,600 miles at the local HD dealership. No service records available, so I went ahead and just changed the filter and oil with HD 20W50 and filter. I will move to M1 V-twin 20W50 @ 15k miles.
