Engine Break-In; Parking - Yamaha XMAX YP250R Owner's Manual

OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS

Engine break-in

There is never a more important
period in the life of your engine than
the period between 0 and 1600 km
(1000 mi). For this reason, you should
read the following material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1600 km (1000 mi). The various parts
in the engine wear and polish them-
selves to the correct operating clea-
rances. During this period, prolonged
5
full-throttle operation or any condition
that might result in engine overhea-
ting must be avoided.
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
●
Avoid prolonged operation above
1/3 throttle. NOTICE: After 1000
km (600 mi) of operation, be
sure to replace the engine oil
and final transmission oil.
