Hi Guys,
Just registered on the forum. I didn't expect to find a forum on the hyperstrada.
I bought a couple of day ago a brand new Hyperstrada 2016 939.
What a bike... Had a Z1000 and i can tell i wanna ride it all the time. I rided in last 3 years around 2000km a year and with this beast i might do 1000km in first week or so.
So i have only one issue.
I am at the break-in portion. I tried the bike from the dealer to my house so around 60km. 120km on highway all the road. No problem.
First small ride, i ride it a bit harder over the rpm recommendation ( i didnt read the owner manual yet) so i see after push it a bit the oil light appear and don't go away. So i stop somewhere secure's. Stop the engine, look all around if oil leaking i see nothing. I start engine, everything is fine (no more oil light). So i go back on the road, im more careful but still i believe that might just be an error, i ride over the max rev and it appear again. Since then i read the owner manual, should no exceed 5000-6000 rpm. Allright i did wrong, i think a got around 7000rpm. Now im really carefull. I ride smoothly for the break in and follow all the recommendations. No oil light since then but one time, i was riding around 110-120 km/h for around 10 mins and it appeared. But i was real smooth going at that speed. I did over 300 km in that period.
I spoke with my gf father who is really good with all engine stuff and he told me that might not be a problem but since you are at the engine break-in period, this might be only an advice to calm down. At the first maintenance they might update the firmware in the bike and the warning will be removed.
I think that might be possible but well lets ask if you guys know about it.
Like i said, i road over 250km smoothly without any issue but the part of 110-120 km/h.
Oil level is good.
Some will say go to dealer, but my dealer customer service is all but good.
Called, they told me bring the bike we will take a look when we have time. They are an hour away of traffic.
Also i will have to go there for the 1000 km maintenance so if i ride smooth to the 1000km i will be able to do both in one time.
