I keep my CB on a battery tender, check the tires before each ride, clean and lube the chain after every few tanks, but I couldn't be bothered to check the oil level between changes. Ignoring it may be false economy, but the engine doesn't smoke or drip oil, the oil pressure light never illuminates while riding, the clutch and gearbox work perfectly, and I change it every 4000 miles anyway. Besides, I hate getting down on my knees. Anyone else as negligent as I am?
