The recommended oil change intervals depend on the type of oil, riding habits, and engine type:

General Oil Change Guidelines

Oil Type

Change Interval

Mineral

Every 2,000 miles or once a year

Semi-Synthetic

Every 5,000–6,000 miles or annually

Fully Synthetic

Every 7,000–10,000 miles or annually

Other Factors to Consider

  • Frequent Riders: Change oil every 3,000–5,000 miles or every 6 months
  • Infrequent Riders: Change oil every 1–2 years, even if mileage is low
  • New Motorcycles: First oil change at 500–600 miles to remove manufacturing residues
  • Older or High-Mileage Bikes: May need more frequent changes due to wear and contamination
  • Extreme Conditions: Riding in high heat (like UAE summers) or dusty environments shortens oil life

Pro Tips

  • Always replace the oil filter with each oil change
  • Check oil color and consistency dark or sludgy oil means it’s time
  • Follow your owner’s manual for model-specific recommendations

Petrol engine oil VS Diesel engine oil

Image
Petrol and diesel engine oils differ in formulation, additives , and performance requirements due to the distinct operating conditions of each engine type. Key Differences Between Petrol and Diesel Engine Oils Feature Petrol Engine Oil Diesel Engine Oil Operating Conditions Lower temperatures and pressures Higher temperatures, pressures, and soot production Viscosity Typically lower viscosity (e.g., 5W-30, 10W-30) Often higher viscosity (e.g., 15W-40, 5W-40) to handle stress Additive Package Focuses on oxidation stability and wear protection Includes detergents and dispersants to manage soot and acid neutralization Detergent Levels Lower, as petrol engines run cleaner Higher, to combat soot and carbon buildup TBN (Total Base Number) Lower TBN, less acid neutralization needed Higher TBN to neutralize acids from diesel combustion Fuel Dilution Resistance Less critical More resistant to fuel dilution due to diesel injection systems Emission...
