RUNNING IN PERIOD
The Royal Enfield Motorcycle as you would be
experiencing, is capable of consistent high speeds.
However as with any new motorcycle, a “RUNNING-
IN” procedure is essential to help in proper “Bedding-
In” of the various moving parts in your motorcycle and
to achieve optimum performance subsequently.
1.
During the first 2000 Kms of run, do not exceed the
speed limits as shown in the table below.
2.
Do not exceed maximum specified pay load.
3.
Warm up the engine for a few minutes at idling
speed to allow engine oil to lubricate all the
moving parts in the engine before riding the
motorcycle.
4.
Avoid full throttle operation and do not ride at
constant throttle continuously. Vary the speed by
10% while riding.
5.
Avoid sudden accelerations and racing starts.
