RUNNING-IN
The recommendations below should be followed when running-in:
Before riding, run the engine at low revs until it has warmed up.
Do not exceed the rpm shown in the table; it is also advisable to run the engine at
varying speeds rather than at a constant speed.
Before stopping reduce the speed gradually to avoid subjecting components to
sudden changes in temperature.
Remember that components need several thousand kilometers before they are
properly bedded in; care taken in this period will ensure prolonged vehicle life.
After the first 500÷1,500 km
Change the engine oil.
Should the oil level drop to the minimum level before the first 500÷1,500
kilometers have been completed then carry out a complete oil change rather than
just topping up. Recommended oil: «Agip 4T SUPER RACING SAE 20W/50».
Replace gear lubrication oil.
Replace transmission box lubrication oil.
Check that all nuts and bolts are tight.
Check rocker clearance.
Check tire pressures.
