MAXIMUM SPEED
This table shows the maximum speed in running-
in period.
VARY THE ENGINE SPEED
The engine speed should be varied and not held at
a constant speed. This allows all the parts in the engine
to be loaded and unloaded. The parts will cool down
when they are unloaded. This is conductible for
matching between the engine parts.
During running-in period, it is necessary to apply
a reasonable stress on all the engine parts to ensure
the best matching between them. The stress or load
applied to engine parts should be adequate, not
excessive.
AVOID CONSTANT LOW SPEED
Operating the engine at constant low speed (light
load) can cause parts to graze and not seat in. Allow
the engine to accelerate freely through the gears
provided that the recommended maximum limit is not
exceeded. Do not, however, use full throttle for the
first 1600km.
ALLOW THE ENGINE OIL TO CIRCULATE
BEFORE RIDING
Allow sufficient idling time after warm or cold
engine start up before applying load or reviving the
engine. This allows time for the lubricating oil to reach
all critical engine components.
PERFORM YOUR FIRST, AND THE MOST
CRITICAL, SERVICE
The first 1,000km service is the most important one
that your motorcycle will receive. During running-in,
all engine components will have worn in and all the
other parts will have seated in. At this time all
adjustment should be made, all fasteners should be

tightened and the dirty oil be replaced. Timely
performance of the first 1,000km service will ensure
optimum service life and performance of the engine.
INSPECTION BEFORE RIDING
Before riding the motorcycle. Be sure to check the
following items. Never underestimate the importance
of these checks and perform all of them before riding
the motorcycle.
CAUTION:
The first 1,000km service should be
performed as outlined in the maintenance
schedule section of this owner's manual. Pay
particular attention to the caution and warning
in maintenance schedule section.
