I am finally going to take my maverick out this weekend heading on a trip. I am currently at 3 hours and like 3 miles and I am sure between Sat. and Sun. if all goes smooth I will probably surpass the 10 hours for the "break in" period. I don't want to cut my trip short because I hit 10 hours. Thoughts? honestly the first 3 hours I am surprised it must have done a lot of idling since I am only at 2-3 miles.


I know I will look into getting or doing the service once I get back, but curious how exact on 10 hours this is.

Hi Szewczyd,

My dealer actually suggested breaking in for longer than the 10 hours stated in the op manual. Like try 20 hours maybe.
I'm at 10 now, but will probably stretch it out a bit longer. I'm no expert, though.

It will come up on your gauges as a reminder but you can continue your riding. You wont need to cut your trip short.

Don't sweat it. Go ride and service it when you get back

 

[PLAY-DOH]

yea just go ahead and change it when you get home

Sounds good guys! I have owned this thing since the beginning of Dec. and this will be my first time out with it... It has been a long winter having it sitting, this weekend can't come soon enough!

hours will run up with just the key on ( so ive been told) so that is probably why your hours got that far ahead.

That makes sense, and the couple times I had to move it, I let it warm up for 10mins because it was single digits outside.

My first change was at a little over 12 hours.

My service light never came on. I took it in at 16 hours

Ride, enjoy, but do get it serviced once you get back.
