Break-in recommendations
The first 600 miles (1,000 km) of riding are the most important
in the life of your scooter. Following proper break-in proce-
dures during this time will help ensure maximum life and per-
formance from your new scooter. Proper break-in operation
allows the machined surfaces to polish each other and mate
smoothly.
Your scooter’s reliability and performance depend on your
exercise of special care and restraint during the break-in pe-
riod. It is especially important that you avoid operating the
engine in a manner which could expose the engine parts to
excessive heat.
The following guidelines should be followed during the break-
in period:
Maximum throttle operation:
Initial 300 miles (600 km): ........ Less than 1/2 throttle
Up to 600 miles (1,000 km): ..... Less than 3/4 throttle
Vary the engine speed:
The engine speed should be varied and not held at a constant
rate for long periods of time. This allows the parts to be "loaded"
with pressure, and then unloaded, allowing the parts to cool.
This aids in the mating process of the engine and transmis-
sion components. It is essential that some stress be placed on
these components during break-in to ensure that this mating
process occurs. Do not, however, apply excessive load on the
scooter's drive line.
Avoid constant low speed:
Operating the engine at constant low speed (light load) can
cause parts to glaze and not seat in properly. Allow the engine
to accelerate freely through the gears, without exceeding the
recommended throttle openings.
Avoid using full throttle for the first 300 miles (500 km).
The initial service:
The 200 mile (300 km) initial service is the most important
service your scooter will receive. Take extra care to observe
your scooter’s initial service in a timely fashion. During
the break-in period, all of the engine components will have
worn in, and all of the other parts will have seated in, so ad-
justments will be required. All fasteners will be tightened, and
the contaminated engine oil will be replaced.
NOTE: Completion of the 200 mile (300 km) initial service
will ensure optimum service life and performance from
your scooter. Do not delay in having this service performed
