Running in

Running the engine in correctly is essential for ensuring engine longevity and func-
tionality. Twisty roads and gradients are ideal for running in the engine, brakes and
suspension effectively. Vary your riding speed during the running in period. This en-
sures that components operate in "loaded" conditions and then "unloaded" conditions,
allowing the engine components to cool.
CAUTION
THE FULL PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE IS ONLY AVAILABLE AFTER THE
SERVICE AT THE END OF THE RUNNING IN PERIOD.
Follow the guidelines detailed below:
Do not fully open the throttle grip abruptly at low engine speeds, either during
or after the running in period.
