I can't decide whether I want to change my oil before winter, or wait until spring. Which is your preference? 


#2

Lots of folks here will wonder why you care since they ride year around - damn them!  

I change oil at the very end of the riding season to make sure anything corrosive in the dirty oil doesn't sit in the crankcase all winter.


#3

Dirty oil is acidic, best to change it.

No need to change again until you hit your mileage limit/next winter.


#4

I like you guys's logic- I'm changing it pre-winter.

Thanks  :tour:


#6

defintely before.
