Engine
While running in the motorcy-
cle, vary the throttle opening
and engine-speed range fre-
quently; avoid driving for long
periods at a constant speed.
Try to do most of your rid-
ing during this initial period on
twisting, fairly hilly roads, avoid-
ing highways if possible.
Observe the engine run-in
speeds.
