This section explains how
import- ant proper break-in is to
achieve maximum life and
performance from your new
motorcycle.
The following guidelines explain
proper break-in procedures.
★
MAXIMUM THROTTLE
OPENING
RECOMMENDATIONS
The table below shows the
maxi- mum throttle opening
recommendation
during
the
break-in period.
Initial 800 km
(500 miles)
Less than
1/2 throttle
Up to 1,600 km
(1,000 miles)
Less than
3/4 throttle
★
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
gears, without exceeding the
recommended maximum limits.
Do not, however, use full
throttle for the first 1,600 km
(1,000 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 pressure 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.
Do not, though, apply excessive
load on the engine.
★
ALLOW THE ENGINE OIL
TO
CIRCULATE
BEFORE
RIDING
Allow sufficient idling time after
warm or cold engine start up
before applying load or revving the
engine. This allows time for the
lubricating oil to reach all critical
