Not an oil thread .... just an oil change interval question
#3
(10-27-2018, 10:34 AM)ohiorider_imp Wrote: I've been faithfully changing oil in the CB1100 on a regular basis. First at less than 1000 miles, next at approx 3000, and most recent at 6500 miles. Oil used is Honda GN4 10w30.

I know Honda also recommends another more expensive oil. Do they recommend oil changes at the same 3000 mile interval, or is the interval stretched out to 5000 miles or more between changes?

Thanks in advance for the info.

The shop manual for my '13 says 4K mile intervals for the oil change. I usually start thinking about changing after 3K, especially if those miles were ridden in the absurd summer temps we get around here. During the cooler months, 4K works just fine for me.
