What kind of maintainence is required on a 50?

How often do you have to change the oil, change plugs, and other general maintainence stuff ?

Re: What kind of maintainence is required on a 50?

no i don't have a manual as i haven't bought one yet. How often does the oil have to be changed? Is it like a dirt bike where you have to change the oil after everytime you ride or like a normal motorcycle with regular schedules?

Its like a regular bike because it is a 4 stroke and not a 2 stroke like a MX bike.

Considering the frequency in which you change the oil in your truck you will fukk up that fiddy. I say do it once a month.

Bill, I don't think it's how often you change the oil, it's remembering to put the drain plug back in
