So I wanted to run this by some people and see what opinions I get back. I had my first service done prior to the season being finished. I then rode the sled for a hundred miles and put it away for the season. My question is if I should change the oil or not?
Run it, it is a waist of time and money. You have done your initial break-in 500 mile oil and filter change correct?

I am in the same position, had the initial oil change & filter then rode two weekends. I too decided no point for oil change on just 2-300 miles. People will say should change for acid/base reasons or moisture. Yet this is just what the new synthetic oils say they are designed to minimize.
