BREAK - IN
The initial 5 hours of operation is most im-
portant in the life of your Dirt Bike. Proper
operation during this break in period will
help assure maximum life of your Dirt Bike
engine.
The following guidelines will explain the
proper break in procedures.
1. During the first 5 hours of operation,
do not apply more than 1/2 throttle.
2. During the next 5 hours of
operation do not apply more the 3/4
throttle
Vary the engine speed:
Make sure to vary the engine speed dur-
ing the break in period, this allows the
engine to load and unload which helps
the parts to seat properly. It is essential
to place some stress on the engine during
the break in process, however, too much
stress could cause damage to the engine
components. Be careful not to load the
engine too much.
Break in period
Allow oil to circulate before
riding.
Allow the Dirt Bike engine to warm up
before riding. This allows the oil to
circulate throughout the engine which
lubricates the components.
Observe your initial and most
critical maintenance service
The initial service( break in maintenance )
is the most important service for your Dirt
Bike. During the break-in time frame, all
of the engine components will have mated
together and seated. Maintenance
required as part of the initial service
includes correction of all adjustments,
tightening of all fasteners and replace-
ment of dirty oil. Timely performance of
this maintenance will help make sure your
Dirt Bike will have the best service life and
performance of the engine.
