Just looking for an opinion here. Saw an fz-09 the other day, has about 1400km on it, owner says they purchased it last year and rode it this year.
The oil is pretty black, when I inquired they told me they haven't changed it so its running the dealership oil. I believe the break in period on these bikes are 600miles or roughly 1000km.
Apart from that, there was a bit of a pulsating idle, though it was a cold start and I don't think the bike has been started in awhile.
Is this something I should worry about? I know he missed the change interval, but the bikes so new I cant imagine there being any serious damage. It would just be something I would change right away if I decided to purchase.
Thanks,
