Two stroke engines burn up their engine oil, and so you do not have to trouble yourself with changing it. Scooters only accommodate roughly a quart of engine oil. The larger Yamaha scooters have got oil filters, but Hondas do not have filters (only a small screen). Given the small engine capacity of nearly most scooters, they incline to get run hard. The low volume of oil, lack of an oil filter and high rpm use results to oil breakdown much faster than your in car. Ideally change the scooter oil about every 1000 miles.
