Interesting thread...
I've always changed mine warm but I don't think it matters.
I miss my old KZ with the kickstarter. You could flush more oil out with just a couple of kicks while it is draining.
I don't fret over oil and changes like I used to. If you change it after a hard hot weekend of riding and at the beginning of the season, you'll be good. Trackdays will thrash oil and it's important to change after a trackday.
Rboe,
I think you are seeing moisture (Mayo). IF you don't ride your bike long enough to boil off the water, you'll get that white stuff. Those 15 minute rides will do that.
