I only rode the bike about 8 miles before I grabbed a sample so that may be why fuel was a little up. The bike only has 21,000 and runs great. This is the third fill on RTS, and I'm using the OEM air and oil filters.

Vis is a little low but hey...... Good showing! You gonna stick with rotella or switch it up? _________________________ 2008 Toyota Corolla LE 5-spd-Totaled in accident! 2002 Kawasaki Ninja ZX9R

I put the RTS in my Nighthawk (after using M1 15w/50 for years). I would like to get at least 3K on that bike so I can run another UOA.
