[rocky18]

New 2012 Vector. Currently plan to break in "by the book". Any tips on what and what not to do? Thanks

Take it out of the box and use it!...... some will disagree.

I like to heat soak and cool several times before I drive them.

Both my nytro's were brand new when I got them. From day one I rode em like I stole em! I had 3000k on my 08 without an issue when I totalled it, and my 2010 was loaded on a trailer and off to the mountains the day I got it. Just let them warm up completely before you ride and you won't have an issue. If you decide to switch to a full synthetic you should wait one season or 500km before dropping the semi synthetic. Other than that, start it up and enjoy!

The first question I ask when I'm buying a used sled is how's it's been broken in. Depending on the answer I get determines whether or not I'll buy it. Be careful what your answer is......
