so they seat and mate properly. Read, understand and use the following rules for operating
the motorcycle during the first 500 miles (800 km).
NOTICE: Do not put unnecessary load on the engine during the first 500 miles (800 km). Avoid
prolonged full throttle operation or any condition that creates excessive engine heat.

section of the Rider's Manual, the VICTORY Service Manual, or an authorized VICTORY
dealer immediately.
