Starting the bike & Running in:
Turn fuel on
Ensure bike is in neutral (not in gear)
Turn choke on (normally up position but may vary depending on model)
Start engine and let it warm up.
Once choke is able to be turned off – set idle speed so the engine ticks
over comfortably without stalling or over revving.
Test machine, ensuring all gears are present & correct & that all controls
are fluid & functional. Ensure brakes are working efficiently (bearing in
mind that the pads will need to bed in first)
