Great find!

An oil change every 500 miles or 30 days is a wise move in light of the fact that one oil is the only lubricant for all the critical wear areas for the engine.

That one surprised me.

They also said the stock exhaust is loud.

and..

That new engine is a racing engine in disguise

Very interesting reading. Did you notice in the specs for the XS1, it called for premium gas? It didn't state a spec on the D model.

I am surprised they called for oil changes every 500 miles.
