Break in Miles

[DeBo]

How many miles until this sled is broken in. I searched and it seems like it's pretty quick. I have 84 miles on it finally lol. Hoping to put more on tomorrow.

Hope you re beating the daylights out of it with lots of bursts of wide open throttle! Don't baby it.

I rode it hard lol. I will pick it up. It's tough with speed limits in NH

Need some WOT bursts to build lots of cylinder pressure to seat rings.

How many miles of this beating lol? I want to do it right.

If you go by the manual...
0-160 km don’t go over 6000rpm for long periods..
160-500 km don’t go over 8000rpm for long periods..
After 500 km drive it how ever you like lol..

I broke 8000 a few times already. Nothing long though

You really don't want to go by the owners manual for this.
The ones that follow the break-in procedure to a T turn into oil-burners and dogs. And who likes dumping oil in a sled, I mean really....?

Nothing you need to worry about..

I’m only referring to what the manual says..

 

[DeBo]

No I will be favoring the wot for short burst for the first 100 miles and maybe start picking that up a bit after. 350 miles I will hit the lake and pin.

Yes I know. No worries.
I truly believe that new engines need full load periods with some periods of rest in between also to seat rings properly.

That’s exactly how I’ve been riding last 2 days here in Quebec.
