You'll have to drain the aos, but that's a small price to pay for not having to change your oil every couple hundred miles. Or worse, letting your oil go, getting contaminated with exhaust gases so that it turns acidic & eats away at the bearings, all the while getting diluted with fuel so that the oil losses viscosity.
This guy...so awesome.
