How often should semi-synthetic oil be changed for motorcycles used daily?

[DeAyla]

Semi-synthetic oil should be changed every six months, with a replacement cycle of approximately 7,500 kilometers. Proper oil changes ensure that the vehicle operates within normal parameters while providing better performance. Semi-synthetic oil is produced using semi-synthetic base oil, refined from mineral oil through hydrocracking technology. It is a blend of mineral oil and full synthetic oil in a 4:6 ratio, making it an ideal transitional product from mineral oil to synthetic oil. The exact oil change interval may vary depending on the city, environment, and driving conditions. If the city has high levels of airborne dust, extremely low temperatures (below -20°C), or if the vehicle is primarily used for short trips (each trip under 8 kilometers), it is recommended to change the oil more frequently—every 5,000 kilometers or every nine months. Keep track of the time between oil changes and observe the driving experience after each change. If the vehicle feels smoother and quieter after an oil change, it indicates that the previous interval was too long, and the next change should be scheduled sooner. After a few adjustments, you can determine the most suitable and accurate oil change interval.
