This section of the manual gives basic information on how to begin riding your motorcycle. In this section
we will cover how to start and stop the engine, how to use the throttle and brakes, how to use the clutch
and shift gears, and things you need to do when you are finished riding.
Break-In Period
The first 800 km (500 miles) is the most important in the life of your motorcycle. Proper operation during
this break-in period will help assure maximum life and performance from your new motorcycle. The
following guidelines explain proper break-in procedures.
Maximum Engine Speed Recommendation
The table below 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 the “unload” (allowing the parts to cool). Although it is essential to place some stress on the
engine components during break-in, you must be careful not to load the engine too much.
Before riding this motorcycle, be sure you have read this entire manual up to this point including the
section titled “Important Safety Information (Pg. 7, 8 & 9) & Before Riding”.
Even if you have ridden other motorcycles in the past, take time to get familiar with the way the
motorcycle works and handles. Always practice in a safe are until you have built your skill level to a point at
which it is safe to ride.
For your safety, avoid starting or operating the
motorcycle in an enclosed area with poor ventilation,
such as a garage. The motorcycle’s exhaust gas contains
poisonous carbon monoxide which can collect rapidly in
an enclosed area and
result in illness or
death.
CAUTION
Only the RM series is equipped with lights.
DO NOT ride LC-ZS-V4 off road series of
