Running-in is essential to preserve engine life and
performance over time. Keeping to the running-in
recommendations will ensure longer engine life and
reduce the need for overhauls and re-tuning. Refer page
1 for running-in information.
Before Riding
• Ensure that tyre pressure is as per specification.
Lower or higher tyre pressures are likely to cause
instabilities in motorcycle behaviour.
• Check operation of throttle, clutch, and brakes as
well as free play on front and rear brakes. Pump
in the brake lever and pedal a few times to ensure
proper bleeding.
• Check both tyres for any wear or abnormalities.
Ensure that wear is not below ‘Tread wear
indicator’ mark.
• Check steering freeness, front and rear wheel
freeness and alignment.
