    Re-use of barely used oil?

    Reuse the oil. You really think dust getting in to the oil will hurt? It's 150km, you're more than fine unless you put rocks in to it. If you went by changing "used" oil at 150km you'd never ride your bike! ;). Do the work save your money for gas and go crazy. 150km you could practically...
