im a very beginner at bikes, DL test is in 10 days

after this I wanted to buy a mt15, because I like the look of it and pretty underpowered so I dont accidentally slime myself,

but main issue with this bike reported by the users are the battery drain caused by the Bluetooth module, even r15 have these issues, the Bluetooth module 100% stays on all the time 24×7, that would reduce battery expectancy pretty soon too

and its soo pointless for it to always stay on, and its also concerning how yamaha dgaf,

if the bike is not run for a week, u have to push start it

this problem is same with all new models

mt15

all r15

xsr

ktm with thier duke, also got bt mod but thiers stop draining when u turn off the key

no what alternative do i go for, pls dont rec bajaj or tvs products, I have ptsd with those

I went to my local Yamaha dealership for some oil, a filter, and crush washer for a 2023 Yamaha R3 and the service department gave me a blue bottle that said it's for marine applications. I wasn't paying attention and ended up doing my oil change with it, not realizing what it was until after. A quick Google search said that I'm screwed, but has anybody done this before? The dealership is closed today but open tomorrow, and I'm hoping there is going to be some recourse if needed. I haven't ridden it at all, just let it idle to circulate for a few minutes.

EDIT

The dealership is having a trailer pick up the bike tomorrow. They agreed to flush and replace the oil and filter at no charge to me. Sounds like a reasonable resolution.
