I want to change the oil before I mothball my Kat for the winter. I plan on using cheap oil and then changing it and putting good stuff in it next spring like I've read in another post. My question is if it would be an issue to use car oil for this because it's alot cheaper than even the cheap motorcycle oil. I wouldn't be riding it but I'm wondering if the extra additives in car oil over time would affect the clutch plates.
Also, I like to drain the carbs because it's alot easier starting in the spring. On previous bikes, I would just turn the gas off at the tank and run the engine until all the gas was out of the carbs. Now without an "off" on the Kats tank, is it possible to just drain the bowls without taking the main feed off the tank or pulling one of the lines.
