Break-In Procedures - Suzuki Burgman UH125 Service Manual

BREAK-IN PROCEDURES

During manufacture only the best possible materials are used and all machined parts are finished to a very
high standard but it is still necessary to allow the moving parts to "BREAK-IN" before subjecting the engine
to maximum stresses. The future performance and reliability of the engine depends on the care and restraint
exercised during its early life. The general rules are as follows.
• Keep to these break-in procedures:
Initial 800 km: Less than 1/2 throttle
Up to 1 600 km: Less than 3/4 throttle
• Upon reaching an odometer reading of 1 600 km you can subject the motorcycle to full throttle operation.
• Do not maintain constant engine speed for an extended time period during any portion of the break-in. Try
to vary the throttle position.
