A ride. Me and some buds are leaving Sunday for about 3k mile trip over next 8 days.
The Harley had about 3k miles on the HD 20w50 oil in the crankcase. I drained out 1 quart and put in a quart of Valvoline synthetic VR1 20w50 oil. I figure that should keep the oil additives in good shape for the 3k miles. Valvoline claims high zinc levels on the oil.
Changed out the primary fluid also. Tranny oil is still new looking.
Heading out from AL to Amarillo, TX by the back road and long route. Should be a blast.
Will get her washed up and loaded tomorrow as we leave at 8 AM Sunday.
Do any of you guys ever do a partial oil change or am I just crazy? Maybe its BITOG
See ya later
