i change my oil with val 10w30 and filter then rode about 27 miles. i know i should have used yamalube but was told as long if it was the right weight it should not matter. i was doing 48 mph when i down shifted from 5th to 4th and the bike shut down. no noise or vibes to warn me of a problem. it appears to be locked up. what did i do wrong?
