Daily Safety Checks - Triumph Bonneville Bobber 2016 Owner's Handbook Manual

From 500 to 1,000 miles (800 to 1,500 km):
• Engine speed can gradually be
increased to the rev limit for short
periods.
Both during and after running-in has
been completed:
• Do not overrev the engine when
cold;
• Do not lug the engine. Always
downshift before the engine begins
to 'struggle';
• Do not ride with engine speeds
unnecessarily high. Shifting up a
gear helps
consumption, reduces noise and
helps to protect the environment.
