I Wouldn't sweat it too much unless it comes back on the 2nd oil change.

These things are assembled overseas and shipped, it can take many months for them to make it from the factory to your door. They're subject to moisture, vibration, dust, etc during transit.

Also, every new engine's first oil change has a mishmash of nasty stuff it it, sand from casting, various types of metal dust from machining and assembly, sealants, locktite, assembly lubes, antisantifreeze,

It takes some break in time and multiple changes to flush app of that stuff out before an oil analysis would show anything useful.

I suppose I could be making a mountain out of a molehill it's got 17 miles on it and I'm not going to 50 like they say I'll do an oil change then go 50 and see how it looks.  Thanks everyone for the responses I'll give an update in a couple of weeks, my grandsons are coming to give it a good workout next week so that'll break it in

I've seen talk about a dipstick extension so as to add more oil how do I know if it needs one, some posts said theirs came with it how tall are the extensions and is this something that I should do

      Decided to do an oil change on the Massimo ...drained oil, screen was very clean even tho oil wasn't.  Then went to remove old filter.. holy crap ..I tried every tool I have, could not budge it..Went to store and got one of the end cap type..fit nice and tight, put a 1/2 in drive ratchet on it..nope..not moving.  Put a 18 on breaker bar o. It. The inside of the removal tool broke off!!  Had to weld it back together. Put a pipe on the bar for more leverage.  Finally broke it loose..
      I have never seen a filter in my 55 yrs of working on engines so tight..And i was the one who put it on 2 yrs ago.  JUST HAND TIGHT!

      I turned off the key and then tried to start it a minute later and it would not start. I changed out the fuel filter and the injector. still nothing. if i have the injector pulled out and close to the hole the injector will spray fuel into the hole and it will run but the minute you put the injector in it will die. any idea's please

      2018 Massimo 700 MSU. The machine started burning oil all of a sudden. One day fine-- next morning burning oil. Looking for advice. Do I pull the engine to inspect the top end or can it be done with the engine in place? Pro? Cons?
      Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated in advance.

      Just bought a brand new 760 about a month ago. I'm at 20 hours which the book says is when you need to change the break in oil. 
       
      I must be crazy, but I can't find the oil filter. I've googled a million videos...everything seems to be 2019 or lower...and/or a 550.  They all show the filter easily seen by looking in past the rear passenger tire on the engine. There is absolutely nothing there on mine. 
       
      1.there seems to be very little info if you Google a 760, or anything Massimo newer than like 2019. 
       
      2. Does anyone have a current model year 760 that can answer my riddle for me?

      I have a 2013 Hisun with a 686 Yamaha engine.
      I purchased it from an individual and it ran fine as long as the battery was full.
      I replaced the stator and now it will not start (run).  It cranks fine, has fuel pressure, but will not fire up.  I replaced the coil, no luck there.
      a technician told me that it was the wrong stator and wants a mint to replace it.
      the wires all plugged in when I installed the stator.
