[QUOTE="Dan23, post: 1205224, member: 2327"] Here is a site that discusses oil temperatures and oil/engine longevity: [URL="https://www.elephantracing.com/techtopic/oiltemperature.htm"]https://www.elephantracing.com/techtopic/oiltemperature.htm[/URL] Neither leaving it run nor shutting it off is a slam dunk, which is why I will continue to shut it down selectively. Only CA has lane-spliiting, so for the vast majority, that has no bearing, even if most of us might[I] like[/I] to see it nationwide, all our bikes will be on the scrap heap before that happens. Yeah, there is a very slim possibility you could block an emergency vehicle... if you are deaf and blind, but I doubt there are many deaf and blind riders. Being rear-ended at a light is a distinct possibility, so discretion is recommended, but no one on the Internet assumes the possibility of others being rational beings. LOL In the end it's a personal decision with some realistic plusses and some theoretical minuses. Suit yourself. If ever I wear down my battery or wear out my starter, I'll let everyone know. Thanks for the thoughtful replies! [/QUOTE]
