Race Bike Oil Change and Analysis || How Does Racing Effect Your Oil
After some research and gathering thoughts and reasons on why we as track day junkies and/or club racers change our oil so often, I decided to test my current oil and share the results with you!! If you're changing your oil after each trackday, or each race weekend, or every six months because you feel like you need to this video may help change your mind. We took a sample on oil with approximately 1200 miles on it, which included 6 track days, a two-day race weekend, and was about 18 months old, and sent it off to BlackStone Labs for analysis. Many of the responses I received on why we change our oil more often than most riders interested me because I didn't know how much data was driving those decisions. So, I decided to leave it up to the experts and see what they would tell me about the oil that was currently in my bike, and most likely well over used since I had done much track riding/racing while also still riding the bike on the street!! The results were shocking to me and it was nice to get a feel for the overall health of the engine I am about to race next year!!
