    How's it going,

    Got my first Harley (Street 500) last year.
    It's the first from new vehicle I have owned.

    So she's just done 2,600km and I want to make sure I keep her sweet as possible for as long as possible.
    Any advice for a novice Harley owner?

    Any recomendations for oil, or any additives?

    I'm about to change the Oil as she is run in now this will be her second sercive, I am going to run a magnet on the side of the Genuine Oil filter.
    The Techs at the Harley shop said that I shouldn't use fully synthetic, wouldn't tell me why, just said don't bother, any clues on that one?

    Cheers all,
    See you on the road!
