How often do you change your oil?

I am new to riding a street bike and was wondering how often one should change the oil?

The dealer seems to think 5000 miles between oil changes it just fine? Any thoughts?

Also do most bikes burn oil and require topping off?

Yeah, oil change at 5000 miles is about right, and oil filter too.

Its the life blood of your machine.

Bike will burn off some oil over time so keep an eye on the level.

wht about first maintenance? that at 600 miles?

At 600 miles (or after 6 weeks - whichever comes sooner) the first service is due, oil and oil filter are changed I do believe, mine's coming up soon :)
