There is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the first
20 hours of riding. For this reason, you
should read the following material
carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
20 hours of operation. The various parts
in the engine wear and polish
themselves to the correct operating
clearances. During this period,
prolonged full-throttle operation or any
condition that might result in engine
overheating must be avoided. However,
momentary full-throttle operation under
load (i.e., two to three seconds
maximum) does not harm the engine.
Each full-throttle acceleration should be
followed with a substantial rest period
for the engine. To allow the engine to
cool down from the temporary buildup
of heat, cruise at a lower engine speed.

After every hour of operation, stop
the engine, and then let it cool for
five to ten minutes.

Vary the engine speed from time
to time. Do not operate the engine
at one set throttle position.
