I would just change the oil, only because of possible moisture. Do filter and oil at the end of the season. Its all cheap insurance.

change oil only yamaha only recomends filter change every i dont remember the miles but its allot look at your oweners manual. definetly change oil for sure it gets acidic from the aluminum parts in the engine just from being in the sled. i do filter every other year and still dont get the miles required for normal yamaha recomened service entervals
