Just bought a "new" 2007 Sprint and had a question about break-in oil. THe bike is being shipped from New York to Atlanta and has 38 miles on it (probably from test rides) and was going to change it before I ride it.
JUst called the dealer and they said that they put Triumph Mobil1 synthetic 10w30 for break-in oil. Does this sound right? Is there a cheaper oil (such as rotella) that I can use until the 500 mile service? The dealer said use 10w30 for break-in and then 10W40 for use afterwards. Any ideas?
I am assuming that the 38 miles that are on it were ridden pretty hard since they were test miles and probably from someone with no intentions of buying the bike. Oh yea, it's black! Previous bike was a Yamaha FZ1 which had incredible power but thought that the Sprint was probably a better built bike (shocks, brakes etc). Hope that I am not disappointed.
