    Are you using Mobile 1 15w -40 ? No I'm using the racing 4t which is a 10w-40. I just got back from a ride on the interstate and in 5th gear the trans makes no noise at all, on decel the gear whine is barely audible now, where before it kind of had the sound of a chevy with a gear drive cam.

    I changed oil from rotella 15w-40 to Mobile 1 syn for motorcycles and the whine has been reduced by about half.

    Before the 600 mi. I never noticed it, so I guess I'll go back to the yamalube and at 3000 mi. try the Rottella synthetic, Thanks again.

    Hey all, I'm new to the yamaha venture and so far the wife and I love the bike, the question I have is after doing the 600 mi. oil change using 15w-40w rotella the engine has some valve ticking on cold start up then goes away in about a minute. Is this a normal thing on this engine, or do I just have a valve set a little loose, oh yeah the bike is an 09. Thanks for the help.
