The Himalayan Motorcycle is capable of consistent high speeds. However as with any new motorcycle, a “RUNNING-IN”
procedure is essential to help in proper “Bedding-In” of the various moving parts in your motorcycle and to achieve
optimum performance subsequently.
1. During the first 2000 Kms of run, do not exceed the speed limits as shown in the table below.
2. Do not exceed maximum specified pay load.
3. Warm up the engine for a few minutes at idling speed to allow engine oil to lubricate all the moving parts in the engine
before riding the motorcycle.
4. Avoid full throttle operation and do not ride at constant throttle continuously. Vary the speed by 10% while riding.
5. Avoid sudden accelerations and racing starts.
6. Avoid prolonged full-throttle operation. Vary speed occasionally.
