Make sure the bike is warm before your shifting at these high rpm. Touch the case on the right side. If it is too hot to hold your hand on it then your good to rev it. But stay under 5k when the bike is cold. Take a few warm up laps around the subdivision or something before having to go anywhere. Rotella 15w40 for a cheap good oil and a wix filter. Change it every 2000 miles tops. Its cheap easy and a good thing to do. Oil the airfilter and run ethanol free gas. I got my bike with 250 miles on it too. Carb cleaning and oil change etc later, it runs like a champ.
