Maintenance intervals: Break in Oil changes & Chain lube
So, it seems folks are doing the initial oil change anywhere between 200-500 miles - is that about right? The owners manual calls for doing it at 500 mi - but based on what I can tell, folks are doing an earlier one then the 500 mi one (and switching over to synthetic at 500 mi)
Is there a reason behind this? Also, what is considered standard practice for storing "used" oil for disposal?
Chain lube is also recommended every 500 miles - is there a way to *tell* when a chain needs lubing?
