It takes me almost a year to get to 5k on the CBR.....the EX500 I do it every 3000 since its a carbed bike and it is started cold alot.

But sure 5k is prolly no issue....

I was trying to find a way to call bullshit, but I guess if you riding full throttle alot, you are running 12:1 or so which should make for darker oil (more carbon).

I think ThirdGen did his every 5k (he can confirm). He's the mileage king!
