Thought a lot of new engines were run in when you brought the bike? Good job I don't have a new bike  |

There are differing oppinions. The happy medium seems to be not to thrash it, load the engine (as in pulling up a hill in a high gear) or sit at a constant speed for a long distance for the first 500 miles.
In other words, you want the engine to be pulling freely without labouring and varying the revs for the first bit. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
I did the 2010 Round Britain Rally on my 350 Bullet. 89 landmarks, 3 months, 9,500 miles. |
