I have a new 2010 motor in my bike, I did the break in oil change at 300 miles, I switched it to synthetic, did I switch it to soon? I talked to some of the service guys and they said the rings should have set in the first 100 miles. Does the 1125 ship with dino oil or synthetic? I thought someone said the 1125 ships with synthetic, but I thought the rings had to set before a bike can run synthetic?

Your bike is broken in. You are fine. Ride it normally.
