RUNNING-IN
The recommendations below should be followed when
running-in:
■ Before riding, run the engine at low revs until it has
warmed up.
■ Do not exceed the rpm shown in the table; it is also
advisable to run the engine at varying speeds rather
than at a constant speed.
■ Before stopping reduce the speed gradually to avoid
subjecting components to sudden changes in tempera-
ture.
■ Ride carefully for the first 100 km (62 miles) to allow
proper bedding of brake pads. Avoid sudden braking.
■ Remember that components need several thou-
sand kilometers before they are properly bedded in;
care taken in this period will ensure prolonged vehicle
life.
