the facts: 2017 rc390 with 2700 miles on it. First service and valves done at the dealer at 600 miles. Motul 15-50 full synthetic. The bike is used for local mountains, Kart tracks and Horse theif mile here in southern california.
I did an oil change today and the oil looked fine but the mesh filter had a wad of fibrous material all collected around it (see photo) i have never seen such a thing and wanted to bounce it off the forum. ( please note I will probably bounce a similar post over at ADV for a broader audience).
I main filter looked fine when I cut it open. I am thinking some paper filter waste that is slowly wearing away? Left over build crap that did not let loose in the first 600 miles?
Any ideas would be appreciated.
TIA
