How often to change oil?
I have a 2007 CVO Screamin' Eagle Ultra. The owner's manual calls for oil changes every 5,000 miles. My dealer says because of the heat of the engine I should change oil every 2,500 miles. I always use synthetic oil when I have the service performed. Is the dealer just looking after his wallet, or will I benefit from changing the oil every 2,500 miles versus the 5,000 miles recommended by the manual?

Too often is better than not often enough.
It really depends what type of riding you do. Lots of Highway miles go longer. In town, city miles, stop light racing etc. change it more often.
I use synthetic, change my own every 2500 most 95% are highway miles at about 60MPH. I consider fresh oil to be cheap insurance.
