Break-In Procedure
Your Cobra CX50 P3 is a close-tolerance high performance machine and break-
in time is very important for maximum life and performance. The CX50 P3 can be
ridden hard after the first ½ hour break-in time.
Cobra recommends
Bel-Ray H1-R
premix oil with high octane
pump gas mixed at 40:1 (150 ml oil to 2 gallons of gas). Other
brands of oil should be mixed at 32:1 for break-in.
CAUTION:
Failure to use proper fuel, oil, or fuel/oil mixture may result in premature engine
wear or damage to the machine.
Adhering to the following break-in schedule will result in long lasting high
performance machine.

First 5 minute period, operate the bike on the stand with a combination of idle
and high RPM operation. (avoid prolonged high RPM but spin the rear
wheel good at least once or twice per minute)

NOTE:
During break-in the bike will likely lose some engine coolant through the
radiator overflow hose. Losing up to 4 oz (120 ml) is normal. Proper coolant level
will cover the top of the radiator cores. Removing the radiator cap and looking
inside is the only way to check the coolant level.
Never remove the radiator cap of a machine that has a warm
engine. Burning and scalding could occur.
