Ahhh 2009 te 510

Alright I picked up my TE 510 Friday from Malcolm Smith Moto here we are Sunday and I am already at 60 miles. I have just been doing a few rides around town. I just got done doing my first oil change wow 4 oil filters do i need to replace the cartridge every oil cahnge or just clean the 3 metal filters and replace the cartridge every so often??? Also the restrictor plate on the intake has been taken of along with the O2 sensor and i was told by the dealer that its pre mapped am I safe to drive like this as long as I take it easy??

Congrats on the new bike!

I've heard folks changing the filter every other oil change, but I change the filter and clean the screens w/every oil change. I look at it as cheap insurance, $5.00 on a filter ain't much when it comes down to the price of a motor.
Sorry but I can't help w/the EFI questions.

Enjoy the ride!!

I would get a temperature guage/sticker for your bike! If it's running lean, it will run really hot. As a side note, my 08 TE 450 runs around 150 to 160 degrees and has gotten as high as 200 on a ride (actually hit 300 ONCE because I was running the oil too high and on the beach - I'm a dumb@$$). Replace the paper filter everytime during the initial 500 miles! George taught me to open up the paper filters initially to see what it's collecting and to make sure it's nothing bad. Now, I change my paper filter every 3rd time I change the oil...same with the metal screens.

where do i get the temp gage sticker and were do i put it??

I like the Factory Effex ones: http://www.motorcycle-superstore.co...D=80003&zmam=88421133&zmas=1&zmac=2&zmap=4783

You can usually get them at any motorcycle store. I have seen them at Cycle Gear, but any shop should be able to order them. I put one on my cylinder, and one on my radiator.
