Engine Break-In; Parking - Yamaha TMax XP500 Owner's Manual

Engine break-in

There is never a more important peri-
od in the life of your engine than the
period between 0 and 1,600 km. For
this reason, you should read the fol-
lowing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do
not put an excessive load on it for the
first 1,600 km. The various parts in
the engine wear and polish them-
selves to the correct operating clear-
ances. During this period, prolonged
full-throttle operation or any condition
that might result in engine overheat-
ing must be avoided.
