Im the first one to post here !!! Well as for maintenance heres a good list of things to do on your YFZ.:

1.Cange the oil
2.Clean your airfilter.
3.Lube your chain.

Hopefully this will be the only maintenance this thing needs a lot.!

Since this is going to be such a high-performance engine, it may require a little more TLC than our trusty Z-400s, Raptors, and 400EX's. Expect to replace the rings every 25-30 hours. (I think that's the number)

nahh not that much. The WR engine will last a long long time....its a reliable engine!

The maintenance should be similar to the kfx-lt-z400's, 400ex's, Preditors ect. Maybe things might have to be done more fequently.

Take care of it and it will take care of you 8) .

I doubt the rings thing...I mean the engine has some diff. parts than the WR engine, but its not that that difference to be changed that often.

Naah, I don't think you have to do it that often. My cousin has the 426 Dirt bike (2002) and he rides it alot, and hasn't has to put a topend on it yet, or even get into the motor. He just makes sure its properly jetted, and does all the normal maintenance all the time, and his bike runs perfect. I think this will be more like the Z400, but a little more up keep.

I'm not sure. I heard something with it having a short skirt and replacing the rings. Whatever- we'll see soon enough. I don't know if what I said even made sense!

No way ever 25-30 hours. That would be like every oil change! It is high performance but it will still hold up like any other quad out their. It is not a 2 stroke so it can't be that much maintance.
