How do I Completely Drain all of the oil?

If you really want to 'purge' the factory oil out, you'll have to do two oil changes in rapid succession. It's wasteful and unnecessary but it'll achieve what you're asking for.

I think I read on another forum recently about a guy who applied the same logic to washing his hair as oil changes and said since he applies shampoo, rinses and reapplies, he does the same with oil changes, and does two back to back.

Personally I think that's nuts, but we all have our OCD compulsions to cater for.

My worst one is when using the back brake at low speed I subconsciously push the front brake lever away with my knuckles. I didn't realise I did this until I noticed I was 'fighting' the C-ABS as it pulled the lever in against my will.

That's a weird habit. How did you develop that one?
