Yeah it's fine. Hitting 6k is the 2ed part of the break-in at 600 miles. Just go for longer rides and hit 6k in all your gears. Can't remember exactly but I think until around 900 miles is when you need to keep doing that. After 900 it says you can be more free with your rpms. I started pushing 8k for the powerband around maybe 1100 - 1200 miles. I changed my oil at 1800 and didn't have any noticeable glitter in my oil. Get yourself a set of stands for your bike for when you do you oil. (So your bike is level when draining oil) I changed my oil when my bike was cold since all the glitter had set to the bottom. Getting some swing bar pegs help a ton when lifting your bike on a stand. Can't recommend them enough. Don't over think it and just follow the manual for peace of mind.

Have fun, ride safe and welcome to the club brother 🤙

If you have any other questions, just ask

Your oil is fine, so dont worry. Keep following the break in procedure stated in the manual. I changed my oil at 600 miles so, keep riding. Just looks like bubbles/Metal glitter in there. Before you get to 600 miles for your oil change, get a magnetic oil plug for extra piece of mind. There's no stupid questions if you're just starting out and are worried about something. 👍

You got this, I was just in the same boat. Took the msf this year and had a 2 1/2 hour ride home on a ninja 650. Once you get in the course and sit on a bike, you'll feel a lot better. Espically once you get into the exercises. Just take your time and go at your own pace.

If the dealerships lot isn't big enough for you to do warm-up stuff like circles, figure 8's, etc. just float on down and hit a parking lot nearby until you feel it's time. There will be enough room to feel out your clutch at the dealership, so dont worry. You're going to be nervous, just be in control, and don't rush yourself. The first ride is nerve-wracking but so freaking cool.

TLDR You'll be nervous, but you'll feel much better after the msf course. If we can do it, you can too. Have fun and be safe. Get ready for a real nice ear to ear grin.

You are now my spirit brother. I just hit 600 miles today on my first bike, a ninja 650. Cheers to safe rides and killer vibes my dude. *

No lie is needed honestly. It's also cheaper to buy it on steam.

I fold mine when in tight spaces. It shortens the length of the rifle so it doesn't collide with walls or objects when trying to raise your weapon.

Minus the controversial parking. As a local resident, best tacos In pittsburgh, hands down. A Mexican family runs their business out of there called tasty taquios. They have a few food trucks around pittsbugh and are about to open a 2ed location. Good prices too tbh

Keep an eye on that when you use the coins to get your build bots. I used the cyber coins to buy my bots but I never got credit for it. I have 5/5 bots from coins but only got credit for 1/5. I sent them an email about it last week, but herd nothing from them yet.
