Ok so my first oil change was at ~ 600 miles. I decided to do another oil change at ~ 1880 miles given the engine is fairly new. So the interval is only ~ 1200 miles

- Prior to the oil change I did a 100 mile ride so the bike was hot.
- When I opened the drain bolt the oil gushed out rapidly due to the oil being very warm-hot.
- Filter came off easily as well
- Used Oil color was chocolate brown..
- Replenished with Honda 10W30 and OEM Honda Filter + Crush Washer.
- This time I almost emptied the 4 quart Honda 10W30 can..
- Fired up the engine.. no new noises anywhere in the engine / crankcase.. I always make sure the bike is in upright position when I first start the bike..don't ask me why...Smile
Feels great.. happy to have the CB1100 in my stable..
