Just run Factory Yamalube like a 20w 40 the API SJ. Use Factory Oil Filter also...i have heard from my dealership that if you do not use the factory Yamalube oil, it can actually void my warranty...LOL.

depending on the size of your gas tank, you usually go about 4-5 hrs per tank. That's about the easiest way to keep track...

Tell your dealer this practice is illegal. Yamaha makes an hour meter for like $40. Check it out under atv accessories at Yamahas web site. www.yamaha-motors.com
