Howdy all new member here. I dont even have my Foreman yet, picking it up on Friday. It is a 2007 ES 4x4. I am a little apprehensive about the electronic shift as a buddy said he tried one and hated it, Im guessing I'll get it figured out quite quickly, then if I dare I'll teach the wife. I will be the first to admit that I am not very mechanically inclined so I'm sure glad there is a site like this so full of information. I will try not to ask too many questions.
I got a really good deal on this ATV but I have one concern that I didn't really think about until after commiting to the buy. It was bought new in Feb 2007, it has 130miles and 29hours on it. The seller says that it has not been back to the dealer for any service since he bought it. Basically he only road it four or fives times then stored it in the garage. Should I be concerned? Isn't there service required after a short "break in" period. What about oil changes shouldn't there been one of them done by now. I'm sure there will be a maintence schedule in the manual when I get it but I've already commited to the deal and am now a little worried that the lack of service might have hurt it a bit although he says no problems at all.
