Good question - I was told 3000mi for the trans, and 1500? for the motor. But in dirt riding it was every 8hrs. I think my general consensus without leading me to a quart of synthetic every week is getting a trackday out of the motor, and then any free time in a parking lot or trail before the next trackday is what I'll run before changing it. I suppose 3 trackdays and I'll do the trans just to keep it fresh.
Problem is I don't know how far either is since it doesn't really have an odometer. The trailtech was crapping on the guy before I got it(wont read RPMs anymore), but I did see that it reads ambient & motor temps(important to me) and a general sense of mph. I say general because it has the sensor cable running to the front wheel, and I can't trust it 100%.
