     Any issues with it?  I'm at 1600kms, but my shop can't take me for another two weeks!

    no issue, but i recommend you do oil changes every 3k if your using the HD oil.

    Yeah, cool, sweat as,,,,, just so long as you haven't got any warrenty issues,cause sure as god put tits on sheillas a dealer will baulk at a warrenty claim if the servicing hasn't been done to HD specs. Even if it is just an excuse.

    I do mine every 5000k and I reckon that's even too often.

    These engines are pretty simple things, and so is the lubrication. Just my 0.2, but I think 3000k is overkill.
