Local dealer told me not to use synthetic oil until i had 3000 miles on it. I was unsure of this so i contacted a dealer a half hour away and asked bout using synthetic, to my surprise i was told the same thing by both dealers. I was told it had to do with the ceramic composite cylinders in the bike. Not sure if it's just the dealers opinion or not.
First oil change
Ok, just did my first oil change on my stryker - man, that was MUCH easier than doing the job on my V Star. Word of advice - to those who don't have a lift or a stand....hope this isn't too technical for the layman. To level the bike while pulling the drain plug and allowing it to drain all out, an old dog house 2by4 and a broken brick are the perfect height under the kickstand for a stock setup.
Hope that helps.
