When you get to the clock, push and hold the button. The hour will flash - bump the button to go up. To get to the minute, push and hold again to get to the minutes, bump to go up. This is the method for the few Yamahas I have messed with although I've never messed with this particular model - but it's worth a try..

What would cause a lifter to collapse on a 2010
Sounds like a defective lifter.
Should still be Under warranty. Take it back let them fix it.
Checking around I found this tidbit:
"turned out that I screwed up and overfilled the bike with oil, which
apparently got aerated and managed to form an air bubble in one
hydraulic lifter Tappety tap. Removing a half quart of oil or so made the
problem go away."
Also read where there was a recall on these concerning the lifters.
Supports my theory it is possibly a defective part.
Since you only have 600 miles on the bike. This is the time to take it back to have the break in oil replaced. Have them check it.
Good luck!
Hope this helps.

2005 Yamaha v star 650 losing power
What Exactly does the bike do when it 'loses power'? This will give clues as to where the issue could be. When was the last time the bike was given a major service? Sometimes it can be as simple as a dirty fuel/air filter or an old/worn or dirty spark plug.

1995 Yamaha Virago 535. It runs good for about 7 miles then starts backfiring?
- Fuel System Issues:
- Check the fuel system for clogs, such as a dirty fuel filter or carburetor jets.
- Ensure that the fuel tank and fuel lines are clean and free from debris.
- Consider adding a fuel system cleaner to help clean out any deposits.
- Ignition System Problems:
- Inspect the spark plugs for fouling, wear, or improper gap.
- Check the ignition timing to make sure it's set correctly.
- Inspect the ignition coils and wiring for any loose connections or damage.
- Air Intake and Exhaust Issues:
- Examine the air filter for clogs or dirt that may restrict airflow.
- Inspect the exhaust system for any leaks or blockages.
- Vacuum Leaks:
- Check for vacuum leaks in hoses, gaskets, or intake boots. A vacuum leak can cause an improper air-fuel mixture, leading to backfiring.
