Day 1 carried the scooter on the back of my van home, took it for about 5 mile ride to a long steep hill, 10 % grade, and rode it like I stole it, wide open up the hill 1 mile to the turn around, up to 100 km. per hour and close the throttle going down the hill ,did that about 10 times , at 27 miles went home and changed the oil, then I rode at alternating speeds for 50 miles changed the oil again,. Day 2 alternating speeds for 100 miles change the oil again,. did that for the next 1,000 miles oh! at 600 miles I took it to the dealer for a check up, told him about the oil changes , he said I was nuts , I said thank you! he changed the oil in the rear end put in royal purple,. did a full check up on all nuts and bolts, charged me $ 85.00 , at the 1,000 mile I changed the oil in the rear end after a long fast ride the crap that came out was big time crap , now every 3,000 miles I change oil motor and rear end hot!!! every time, I buy filters by the dozen, the air filter is a DNA filter good for the life of the scooter,. installed Dr. pulley sliders 15 grams, modded the variator so the sliders slide further up the ramp, that lower my rpm by 1.000 rpm. 1500 at high speed over 75 mph. other than putting new rubber on the scooter , that is all I have done,. one more,, Givi wind shield and givi top box , and I moded the seat put in 4 inch rebond foam and moved the butt stop back 5 inches,
at the 1,000 mile I used full syn., oil mobil 1 same as my van 450,000 km. and it runs like new,
