How often do you guys check your oil? I guess I am **** but my dad drilled it in to me so that now I hardly take my bike out of the garage that I am checking the darn oil. None of my buddy's really check theirs much at all, just at oil change time. Anyway, not a right or wrong answer just curious.

 

I have a pressure gauge so I look at that alot, otherwise I really never check it unless I have a reason.

 

I check mine about once a week to 2 weeks, more if I am riding a lot. I seem to check it more often since I put the oil cooler on it. Afraid of leaks perhaps.

 

Before every ride for the first few days after a fluid change. Then every week or two after that.

 

Not sure how much you ride.... but I always pop it open and do a cold check before she leaves the garage and then a hot check when she comes back in...
as a note I also check the tire pressure, give the belt a quick check, touch all of the major fasteners and then make sure all of the switches and lights work..

all of this is just habit from riding a shovel-head....

 

when I hear a strange knocking sound coming from the engine...

 

I check before long trip, I do check for oil leak occasionally.

 

Memphis is lookin damn good!! Not meanin any disrespect if she is related... just sayin

Oh sorry... yeah... oil... once in 1,000 miles

 

Yeah I usually do a cold check before leaving and sometimes a hot check upon return. Like I said, just habit I guess.

 

Me too.
