interesting conversation about draining oil
#45
Alright, 5-page oil thread, it's time for a theoretical experiment (since I don't think we could accurately do this in real life, as a forum).
....Unless someone here owns two bikes.....

Two CB1100's have been sitting on their center stands for hours. The oil level in their sight glass is dead-on even with the line.

One starts up, and gets up to temperature. The other stays off. One is hot, the other is at room temperature.

The oil in both bikes is allowed to drain into a catch pan for 30 minutes, along with the two identical filters.

Which catch pan weighs more - the hot one, or the cold one??

My bet is on the cold one.
