My 1986 900 owners manual specified 10k mile oil change intervals. That's what I did and it still ran like a swiss watch when I sold it two years ago with 320k miles on the odometer. And no, I did not use any fancy synthetic oil either. I believe the manual specified API SH as required rating.
I am still doing 10k mile change intervals with my 1998 900. I follow the owner's manual and use only ACEA A3 rated oil (currently Castrol Syntec 5W-40). It has 160k miles now.
