That bike's way too shiny, if you've had it for a year. :whistle:

Re: hi from wisconsin

Funny you all notice how clean. fact is i just hit 2000 miles and my trick is i don't ride in the rain and I've only washed it 3 times with the hose, but every time i ride it i wipe it with spray wax. I like it to look new. i have a four wheeler that i ride hard but it to shines just like new too. and it a 2009 also. funny in them 2000 miles I have also changed the oil and filter with full synthtic mobil 1 three times already. this is the smallest cc bike that I've owned that I push pretty hard when I take It to work @80 miles round trip. Oil changes pay off and I really want to see what I cant get out of this bike. first oil change was done @ 200 miles, 2nd was @ 1000 and 3rd was @ 2000. now I do It every !000. I bought the bike in April of 2011, and it wasn't even the bike I wanted. But after a little thinking an talking myself into it Im glad I made the choice.after adding I few Items its really turned out to be a great little cruiser.

Seems like overkill Suzuki say every 3000 miles (and they're the people who make the bike, and don't want to pay out on the warranty) Do you change the filter at every oil change? Most folk go by the 3000 in the handbook, with no ill effects reported. Looks like you're just putting money into the pockets of the oil company & filter manufacturers. Still - it's your money you're wasting.
