RUN-IN PROCESS
Motorcycle engines have a lot of relative moving parts, such as pistons, piston rings, cylinder
blocks, meshing transmission gears, etc. Therefore, in the initial stage of use, the engine must be
operated more gently than when riding afterwards . The running-in can make the moving parts
adapt to each other, correct the working gap, and form a good smooth friction surface that can
withstand larger loads. Only after standard running-in can the engine have excellent performance
and reliability.
The recommended running-in steps are as follows:
1. 0-2.5h stage: Using under the throttle level of 50% ~ 75%, the speed should be changed
frequently to avoid the motorcycle working at the same condition for a long time,
Let the engine rest and cool down for 5 ~ 10 minutes after each 1-hour work.
Do not accelerate suddenly to protect your throttle.
2. 2.5-4h stage: Using under the throttle level of 50% ~ 75% throttle and work for a long time at
the same condition.
In actual working, the throttle can be up to full level, but not more than 5 ~ 10 seconds;
3. 4-5h stage: Using under the throttle level of 75% ~ 100%
4. More than 5h: increase the speed to 60 ~ 80km/h, until the full engine performance can be used.
DANGER
：
When riding a motorcycle, do not speed up regardless of the consequences. This
behaviour can easily cause engine damage and also cause safety accidents.
So, please ride the vehicle properly.
