I overfill all of my bikes a little, it makes me feel better when I'm vertical.

Re: Oil change

Well a fiddy doesn't hold that much oil , so if you put to much in , it might start to cause things to leak .

Big bikes do it cause of the location of the oil pump . I have never heard of anyone having these problems with a fiddy .

Motopimp had that 12 min. wheelie on a fiddy , and if his bike didn't lock up , i doubt yours will .

I also think he said he has never changed his oil either

Too Much Oil Bad In 50. Use The recomended amount. performance will suffer as well as leaks do to excessive crankcase pressure.

+1 I know people stuntig 50s with correct oil amount riding wheelies all day long with no problems. No need no risk harming your engine for nothing! It only takes like .6 US quart. How much more could you fill anyways? And it definatly dosn't hurt to change it once in a while eather. Just make sure you use Honda GN4 oil. Less than 5 bucks for the quart at the dealer, and no oil filter!
