What regularity do u change ur oil?
 

Hey guys, I just got me a 400ex about 2 weeks ago......and I love it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I know quads need their oil changed quite a bit. I am gonna change in tomorrow cause I don`t know when the last guy changed it. When do you guys change ur oil? I was thinking changing it after going through 3 tankfuls of gas. Is that doing too much/too little or about right? Thanx guys!

I would say that you should chang eit every 3-5 rides. It depends on your riding conditions, dusty = more changes, air box lid off = more frequently. You get the idea.

I change it when the light comes on, I think it comes on at 600 miles. It takes 6 quarts+ filter $24, just like a V8 truck and you have to remove skid plates to get the filter off. I wish mine was also cheap and easy to change oil in.

Oil and filter every five hundred miles. Keep your air filter clean too.
