Hey just got my bike here in the states used from an older guy who bought it new but neck issues made it uncomfortable for him to ride.
He put 239 miles on the bike, did nothing to it. I just rode it home from his place and put another 100 miles on it... so we are at the 339 mile mark and i wanna do a first oil change and start cleaning out the shavings and debris i expect to see from previous posts.
I read and saw videos saying stick with mineral oil until the 600mile service.
Also the manual calls for 15w 50 oil.
At a local shop they only had the Bel Ray 10w40 mineral oil. The mechanic there said they use it for all engines during break in and the weight wont make any difference?
I grabbed 2 quarts of it but just wanted to check here first for feedback.
