07 XTX First Service

Just dropped the bike off to have its first 600 mile/6 week service and the dealership owner who I booked it in with said did I want either semi synthetic or fully synthetic oil putting in during the service.

I asked what Yamaha recommend and he showed me a pre printed off Yamahlube chart that showed a tick for the XT to have either. I asked the price difference which was �10 but someting in my head said use semi synthetic so I opted for that.

I dont think it will make any noticable difference overall but worth the mention. I also pointed out the corrosion I was suffering from and that is getting sorted under warranty and I also pointed out it has a slight top end rattle which I am sure should not be there so they are sorting/looking at that as well. I am just waiting for the call before I collect and will let you know how I got on.

Once I get it back I can steadily get it maxed out on the revs, I have been reasonably carefull up to now as I want the motor to last.
