OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS
ENGLISH
There is never a more important period in the life of your vehicle than
the period between 0 and 1000 km (0-621.37mi). For this reason,
you should read the following information with particular care. A
brand new engine should not be put under an excessive load for the
first 1000 km (621.37mi). During this period, the various parts in the
engine wear and polish themselves to the correct operating
clearances. During this period, prolonged full-throttle operation or
any condition that might result in engine overheating must be
avoided.
0-150 km (0-93.21mi)
Avoid prolonged engine operation with the throttle grip more than
1/3 open and let the engine cool down for 5-10 minutes after
every hour of use. Vary the engine speed from time to time: do not
operate the engine at one set throttle position.
150-500 km (93.21-310.69mi)
Avoid prolonged engine operation with the throttle grip more than
1/2 open. Use all gears but do not rev up too harshly.
500-1000 km (310.69-621.37mi)
Avoid prolonged engine operation with the throttle grip more than
3/4 open.
After 1000 km (621.37mi) of operation, remember to
change the transmission oil.
1000 km (621.37mi) and beyond
You can now rev up normally.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
Avoid constant operation of the engine with the throttle
grip fully open.
If any trouble should occur during break-in, have a
MALAGUTI Dealer check the vehicle.
