[QUOTE="vetwfo'er, post: 136819, member: 21011"] I change my oil after every hard trail ride (due to clutch abuse) or every two MX practice sessions or every race. I only clean and inspect my filter, since it's a brass mesh screen. Take some contact or carb cleaner and spray from the inside out, inspect it for tears or dis-placed mesh and re-use it. I use Mobil1 15-50w synthetic and that seems to be the concensus (synthetic) for the blue beast. Just make sure whatever oil you use, It does NOT say "EC" (energy conserving). The EC oil will fry your clutch:( I've also considered for the money I've saved re-using my filter, an investment in the Scotts filter. It's supposed to filter finer particles and flow as much or more than the stock filter. And for a little added insurance, I have the Yamaha magnetic drain plug but, I hear the Ty Davis plug will hold a wrench....the magnet is that powerful. Just my two cents and yes, I'll take change. vetwfo'er [/QUOTE]
