Has anybody ever used a service such as Oelcheck to determine the approximate mileage of a vehicle based on your motor oil?
My K6 reads 11,480 miles but there's no way in Perdition that is so. My bike runs, but it's certainly not 11k miles old...maybe 111k miles old. My engine came from a parts bike which had sat for years and years. I think that Tutankhamun was the last owner. My gauges came from the same parts bike as the engine, but again, there's no way my engine is that young. My compression is 125psi across the board, so it's no Spring chicken.
Odometer aside, I read something about testing engine oil to determine engine age, and wondered if it was real or fake. Has anyone here had any experience which such things? Have you or anyone you know tried it? If so, do you recommend it?
