i usually do this in jb bike shop, its cheaper as i pump jb fuel, so at e same time out of convinence. i change my eo once a mth, any 20w50 would b gd i guess, abt 18rm per bott. i change my oil filter every 2 mths, abt 15rm. i think air filter should b changed once every half yr, abt 20 sdg at lim ah boy
