Riding the motorcycle
Break-in recommendations
Important
Before using the motorcycle, make sure that
there are no labels on the rear-view mirrors; remove,
if any.
Maximum rpm
Rotation speed for Break-in period and during
standard use (rpm):
1) Up to 600 mi (1000 km);
2) 600 mi (1000 km) to 1553 mi (2500 km).
Up to 600 mi (1000 km)
During the first 600 mi (1000 km) keep an eye on the
rev counter, it should never exceed: 5,500 ÷ 6,000
rpm.
During the first few hours of riding, it is advisable to
run the engine at varying load and rpm, though still
within recommended limit.
To achieve this, roads with plenty of bends and even
slightly hilly areas are ideal for the most efficient
break-in of the engine, brakes and suspensions.
For the first 60 mi (100 km), use the brakes gently.
Avoid sudden or prolonged braking. This will allow the
friction material on the brake pads to bed in against
the brake disks.
So that the mechanical parts of the motorcycle can
adapt to each another, and especially so the life of the
basic engine parts is not affected, avoid harsh
accelerations and do not run the engine at a high rpm
for an extended time, especially uphill.
It is also advisable to inspect the drive chain
frequently and lubricate as required.
