First Oil Change

[NCGSXR]

Gotta say it isn't as hard as I thought it would have been. Most trouble was getting the bolt loose on the overflow tank.

I used Mobil 1 15W50 red cap for the oil, and a Fram PH6607 filter.

For those fixing to embark on this, one word of advice, get a filter wrench, I ended up using a hammer and screw driver to remove the filter.

oh man.. fram filters are shit.

Bosch, Purolator Pure One, are two of the best
I had a link to a site that did a thorough testing that verified this but I can't find it..

Next go round I'll most likely end up with a purolator filter, I ran one on my WRX and no problems what so ever. It won't take me long to rack up 3K miles ;)

Yes this is my first bike, but not new to riding. I use to ride a F3 a friend had.

I have always hear/read that Honda oil filters are the best for the bike, although they are more $.
