BREAK-IN AND
INSPECTION BEFORE
RIDING
BREAK-IN
The first 800 km (500 miles) is the
most important in the life of your
motorcycle. Proper operation dur-
ing this break-in period will help
assure maximum life and perfor-
mance from your new motorcycle.
The following guidelines explain
proper break-in procedures.
Maximum Engine Speed
Recommendation
This table shows the maximum
engine speed recommendation
during the break-in period.
Vary the Engine Speed
Vary the engine speed during the
break-in period. This allows the
parts to “load” (aiding the mating
process) and then “unload”
(allowing the parts to cool).
Although it is essential to place
some stress on the engine com-
ponents during break-in, you must
be careful not to load the engine
too much.
Breaking in the New Tires
New tires need proper break-in to
assure maximum performance,
just as the engine does. Wear in
the tread surface by gradually
increasing your cornering lean
angles over the first 160 km (100
miles) before attempting maxi-
mum performance. Avoid hard
acceleration, hard cornering, and
hard braking for the first 160 km
(100 miles).

WARNING
Failure to perform break-in of
the tires could cause tire slip
and loss of control.
Use extra care when riding on
new tires. Perform proper
break-in of the tires as
described in this section and
avoid hard acceleration, hard
cornering, and hard braking for
the first 160 km (100 miles).
