Running in procedure
#4
There is not one. I personally changed the oil, yes it was Honda 10w30 oil, and the oil filter, yes it was the Honda brand oil filter. It is happy with that, sounds good, runs smooth.

I am going to synthetic 10w30 Honda oil soon as I feel she is broken in. She might be now, frankly. She has a vibration in the handlebars right after I bought her but that has lessoned and it might actually be the tires breaking in but what do I know except that she rides smoother now after 600 miles.

I have great experience with synthetic oil in my Sierra truck, 340 thousand miles now and the only problem I have with that V8 engine is her valve guilds and some seals have natural wear that will occur no matter how great the oil is.

So, after break in I will use synthetic to prevent any wear on startup. Startup is where the wear occurs and synthetic will flow faster quicker.
