1-6 GENERAL INFORMATION
BREAK-IN PROCEDURES
During manufacturing only the best possible materials are used and all machined parts are finished to a very
high standard. It is still necessary to allow the moving parts to “BREAK-IN” before subjecting the engine to
maximum stresses. The future performance and reliability of the engine depends on the care and restraint
exercised during its early life. Refer to the following break-in engine speed recommendations.
• Keep to these break-in throttle positions during the break-in period.
Break-in throttle operation
Initial 800 km ( 500 miles): Less than ½ throttle
Up to 1 600 km (1 000 miles): Less than ¾ throttle
• Upon reaching an odometer reading of 1 600 km (1 000 miles) you can subject the mo orcycle to full throttle
operation.
CYLINDER IDENTIFICATION
