850xp changed oil too early.

Ok so this is really dumb and I can't believe I did it. I don't think it's a problem but I wanted to check with you guys. I changed the oil at 5 hrs and 34 miles. I had the hours and miles confused and thought I was passed the 20 hour mark. I read that there is no break in oil and it's the same ps4 that I put in it. Can someone ease my mind and tell me that it's no big deal.

Its not going to hurt anything to have clean oil in the crankcase. You're going to be alright

No big deal...change it at 50 hrs from now on. That first quick change is just to get break in metal particles out of the system. You need to worry less and ride more Enjoy the new machine!

I changed my oil at 10 hours. The only bad thing it did was get the wife mad .
