KEY ROLE IN ENSURING VEHICLE SAFETY AND MUST COMPLY WITH SPECIFIED VALUES.
CHECK THE TIGHTENING TORQUES OF FASTENING PARTS ON A REGULAR BASIS AND AL-
WAYS USE A TORQUE WRENCH TO REASSEMBLE THESE COMPONENTS. FAILURE TO COM-
PLY WITH THESE RECOMMENDATIONS MAY CAUSE ONE OF THESE COMPONENTS TO GET
LOOSE AND EVEN DETACHED, THUS BLOCKING A WHEEL, OR OTHERWISE COMPROMISE
VEHICLE HANDLING. THIS CAN LEAD TO FALLS, WITH THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH.
Running-in
Engine run-in is essential to ensure engine long life and correct operation. Twisty roads and gradients
are ideal to run in engine, brakes and suspensions effectively. Vary your riding speed during the run-
in. This ensures that components operate under both "loaded" and "unloaded" conditions, allowing the
engine components to cool.
CAUTION
THE CLUTCH MAY EMIT A SLIGHT BURNING SMELL WHEN FIRST USED. THIS PHENOMENON
SHOULD BE CONSIDERED NORMAL AND WILL DISAPPEAR AS SOON AS THE CLUTCH
PLATES GET ADAPTED.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO STRAIN ENGINE COMPONENTS DURING RUN-IN, HOWEVER, MAKE SURE
NOT TO OVERDO THIS.
CAUTION
THE FULL PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE IS ONLY AVAILABLE AFTER THE SERVICE AT
THE END OF THE RUNNING IN PERIOD.
Follow these guidelines:
•
Do not twist the throttle grip abruptly and completely when the engine is working at a low
revs, either during or after run-in.
•
During the first 100 Km (62 miles) use the brakes gently, avoiding sudden or prolonged
braking. That is to permit the adequate adjustment of the pad friction material to the brake
discs.
AFTER THE SPECIFIED MILEAGE, TAKE THE VEHICLE TO AN OFFICIAL Moto Guzzi DEALER
FOR THE CHECKS INDICATED IN THE "AFTER RUN-IN" TABLE IN THE SCHEDULED MAINTE-
NANCE SECTION TO AVOID INJURING YOURSELF, OTHERS AND /OR DAMAGING THE VEHI-
CLE.
