Welcome to the Forum.
How many miles on it, did you check the oil, when was the last time it was serviced and by who, how long had you been riding before it started, and what modifications have you made? Might want to give any other information that could help.

Start by checking the codes and see what you get. Who serviced the bike, was it a dealer or previous owner or you?

Dealer more concerned about the noise it sounded like something clanging around inside the lower front of engine

If oil is not getting through, you will get clanking lifters and/or clanking top end. Could be stuck relief valve, plugged feed hole/oil pump issue, etc. Even though the 07 has hydraulic tensioners and they’re supposed to last much longer than the spring tensioners on the 99-06 TC88’s, you still could have an issue with them and resulted in what caused the oil problem

Who did you buy it from - the Dealership or an individual. No way oil level should be low after 400 miles. How low was the level?

Are you checking oil level while hot and at the appropriate spot on the dipstick (whether upright or on the jiffy stand)?

Do you know the history of the bike, or have service records? Could be an inner cam bearing. Have dealer check it out.
