Multiply by 8 and divide by 5. Most of us can cope with that.  actually on long rides or drives I quite often entertain myself by converting distances from road signs to miles. In the US and UK I do it the other way. I am a bear of very little brain though and am easily amused........

Snap! Me too. Gotta think of something on those long rides.

Any thoughts on using a zinc/phosphorus additive to flat tappet GRiSO oil. I use only Eni 10-60 oil?

Don't wait. Do the inspection and see how bad it is. I had 10k miles and the DLC was on its way out so I opted to get the roller kit and do the work myself.

I caught it in time before any damage was done. You can see where the coating is failing in a couple of the pics I posted.

I find it simpler to multiply by 6.  

Yes, of course, dot-6, as it saves a step.  I am too busy on rides trying not to kill myself to do multi-step math.
