Lock the steering for security.

Pull the ignition key out of the lock and
keep it yourself.
The opening explains how important proper break-in
is to achieve maximum life and performance from
your new Hyosung. The following guidelines explain
proper break-in porcedures.
▣
MAXIMUM THROTTLE OPENING RECOM-
MENDATIONS
The table below shows the maximum throttle open-
ing recommendation during the break-in period.
▣
AVOID CONSTANT LOW SPEED
Operating the engine at constant low speed(light
load) can cause parts to glaze and not seat in.
Allow the engine to accelerate freely through the
gear, without exceeding the recommended maxi-
mum limits.
Do not, however use full throttle for first 1,600 km
(960 miles).
▣
VARY THE ENGINE SPEED
The engine speed should be varied and not held
at a constant speed.
This allows the parts to be loaded with pres-
sure and then unloaded, allowing the parts to
cool.
This aids the mating process of the parts. It is
essential that some stress be placed on the
engine components during break-in to ensure
this mating process.
BREAK-IN
Maximum throttle opening
Less than 3/5 throttle
Less than 4/5 throttle
Less than 5/5 throttle
Interval
Initial 800 km (480 miles)
Up to 1,600 km (960 miles)
More than 1,600 km (960 miles)
Do not, though, apply excessive load on the
engine.
▣
BREAKING IN THE NEW TIRES
New tires need proper break-in to assure maxi-
mum performance, just as the engine does.
Wear in the tread surface by gradually increas-
ing your cornering lean angles over the first 160
km (100 miles) before attempting maximum per-
formance. Avoid hard acceleration, hard corner-
ing, and hard braking for the first 160 km (100
miles).
Failure to perform break-in of the tires
could cause tire slip and loss of control.
Use extra care when riding on new tire.
Perform proper break-in of the tire as
described in this section and avoid hard
acceleration, hard cornering, and hard
braking for the first 160 km (100 miles).
WARNING
▣
ALLOW THE ENGINE OIL TO CIRCU-
LATE 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.
▣
OBSERVE YOUR FIRST, AND MOST
1,000 km (600 miles) SERVICE
The 1,000 km (600 miles) service is the most
important service your motorcycle will receive.
During break-in procedures all of the engine
components will have worn in and all of the
other parts will have seated in.
All adjustments will be restored, all fasteners will
be tightened, and the dirty engine oil and engine
oil filter will be replaced.
Timely performance of the 1,000km (600miles)
service will ensure optimum service life and per-
formance from the engine.
