I've been testing to see how far I can prolong the oil life in my Cadillac. Mobil 1 is expensive, and so far they are recommending a oil change interval of 10,000 miles. I wouldn't go that far on a bike, but you could extend over what the factory recommends.

It is to test if there is metal or other debris in the oil before you get a problem. like bearings,rings,pistons ,and so on
