BREAKING IN THE NEW TIRES
1 New tires need proper break-in to as-
sure maximum performance, just as
the engine does. Break-in the tread
cornering lean angles over the first
1
maximum performance. Avoid hard ac-
celeration, hard cornering, and hard
braking for the first 160 km (100 miles).
A WARNING
Failure to perform break-in of the
tires could cause tire slip and loss
of control.
Use extra care when riding on new
3
tires. Perform proper break-in of the
tires as described in this section
and avoid hard acceleration, hard
cornering, and hard braking for the
1
first 160 km (100 miles).

AVOID CONSTANT LOW SPEED

Operating the engine at constant low
speed (light load) can cause parts to
glaze and not seat in. Allow the en-
gine to accelerate freely through the
gears, without exceeding the recom-
mended maximum limits. Do not, how-
ever, use full throttle for the first 1600
km (1000 miles).

ALLOW THE ENGINE OIL TO

CIRCULATE BEFORE RIDING
Allow sufficient idling time after warm
or cold engine start up before apply-
ing load or revving the engine. This
allows time for the lubricating oil to
reach all critical engine components.
OBSERVE YOUR FIRST AND
MOST CRITICAL SERVICE
The initial service (1000 km mainte-
nance) is the most important service
your motorcycle will receive. During
break-in operation, all of the engine
components will have mated together
and seated. Maintenance required as
part of the initial service includes cor-
rection of all adjustments, tightening
of all fasteners and replacement of
dirty oil. Timely performance of this
service will help make sure you get
the best service life and performance
from the engine.
NOTE: The 1000 km (600 miles) ser-
vice should be performed as outlined
in the INSPECTION AND MAINTE-
NANCE section of this Owner's
Manual. Pay particular attention to the
CAUTION and WARNING in that sec-
tion.
