IMPORTANT

BREAK-IN INFORMATION FOR 
YOUR MOTORCYCLE

The first 1,000km(600miles) are the most impor-
tant in the life of your motorcycle . 
Proper break-in operation during this time will 
help ensure maximum life and performance from
your new motorcycle.

Hyosung

parts are manufactured of high quality

materials, and manufactured parts are finished to 
close tolerances. Proper break-in operation
allows the machined surfaces to polish each
other and mate smoothly.

Motorcycle reliability and performance depend
on special care and restraint exercised during
the break-in period. It is especially important that 
you avoid operating the engine in a manner
which could expose the engine parts to exces-
sive heat.

Please refer to the BREAK-IN section for specific
break-in recommendations.
