X2 I use mobil 1 clean 5000 and I change it ever 1,500 miles and filter every 3,000 miles. Maybe a bit much but hey I've had motors last over 250k so I'll stick with it.

If the motor only has 200 miles on it you shouldn't be running synthetic oil, just run regular 10-30 for the first change or 2

Since it's a brand new motor, get a magnetic drain plug if you haven't already.
