1996 ZX-11 DIY oil change questions
Question for the oil experts out there:
I'm planning on taking care of my own oil changes.
I've got a 1996 ZX-11 with a hair over 40,000 miles.
I'm planning on getting a Scott's/K&P stainless filter for it.
I'm almost positive that it calls for 10w40 oil.
I'm planning on using full synthetic.
Would I be safe(er) with a synthetic?
or should I just use dino juice and change it every 3-4k miles?
Can I go a bit longer with synthetic? 5k, 6k, longer?
I'm doing all (90%+) highway miles for now.
Is 10w40 the right viscosity for summer riding with this bike?
Should I go with a heavier weight oil for the summer?
Thanks in advance everyone!
