Initial oil change
I have been away from my bike since June 8, 2017. I also had spinal surgery. I was just cleared by neurosurgeon to wear a helmet and go on short rides (If I drop the bike, I cannot lift anything over 30lbs still).
I hit the two hundred mile mark the first week of June before I deployed. It is ready for the first oil change. The CSC website states 5W40 non synthetic oil then at 1,000 miles use 10W40 motorcycle synthetic oil. Here's my problem: My local auto parts store does not have any 5W40 non synthetic oil. Everything they carry is either synthetic or semi synthetic. I bought Lucas 10W40 semi synthetic and Royal Purple break in oil. It is 10W30. Please advise. Thanks.
