I have a couple of questions which I need answered now I will be getting my buddy on friday.

1. How many miles does the buddy need the oil changed?
2. How many miles till the gear oil needs to be changed?
3. Any other fluids that need to be changed after so many miles?
4. What are the best brands of oil to use for oil change/gear oil change?

I was told that the first oil change the dealer should do, and then from then on, I could do it myself easily, but I dont know what products the dealer uses, so I just want to know for the time when I need to do it myself.

It will have a complete and some what confusing/debatable maintenance schedule.

as for me
1. 1000 BU (buddy units)
2. 5000 BU
3. Fluids not really but, there other other items of maintenance. Ask MOM
4. "Best" thats debatable. I like castol syntec and motul.
