We all know changing the oil on our bikes is the most
important routine maintenance we perform. So if you are
going to change your oil, why not change all of it? We all
change our oil by draining and refilling the oil tank and
change the oil filter. But we never get the oil out of the
engine. We pretend like it’s an insignificant amount or
it’s not even there. Yet there is more
than 24oz. left in the engine, 20% of the oiling system
capacity! Upon engine start up, this old oil mixes
with the fresh oil and starts the breakdown and
discoloration of the fresh oil immediately.
Let’s face it - the oil filter only gets the
particles out of the oil.
We must change the oil because of the chemical breakdown
from high temperature and combustion gasses mixing with the
oil which is what breaks down and discolors the oil. When
you mix 24oz. of old oil with 96oz. of fresh oil, the
breakdown of the fresh oil starts immediately. This would be
like draining the oil in your car, changing the filter, and
then pouring in one quart of the oil you just drained out
and the new oil. Then pretend the quart of old oil you just
poured in never came out and it’s insignificant.
We solve this problem; The Scavenger Total Oil
Change System. This clever yet easy to use system
effectively purges all the oil from the engine when
performing an oil change. With this we get no old broken
down oil mixing with new oil so our new oil stays fresh
longer. It’s great if you want to switch to Synthetic oil
from regular oil or the other way, but either way it’s a
great service. Included at no charge.
We recommend the following 4
step program.
Every 6,000
kilometers - Oil & Filter + detailed
inspection
Every second oil change (12k
intervals) - Oil & Filter + detailed
inspection + fluid replacements
Every third oil change (18k
intervals) - Oil & Filter + detailed
inspection + fluid replacements + repacks & replacements
Spring Inspection - a 30 step
service checklist.
We recommend Amsoil products.
