Less than 400 miles on it and it smoked me. Imagine what it would do if it was broke in. I believe 124 or 127. Regardless, I was topped out and got passed.

so what, are you suppose to baby these 4 stroke during break in period, i always broke my sleds in the xact way i planned on riding it..
Ironviper...Lots of opinions on this topic, So this is mine 
I have done alot of research on this and the true window of time to break in a motor is about 0-20 miles. After that, the rings are done doing what they are going to do. The best thing you can do during that window is keep the cumbustion chamber pressure high which keeps the ring to cylinder wall pressure high. The way you do that is with alot of throttle Now....this dont mean hodl it wide open down the lake for 20 miles. It means you still want to varry the throttle, but hammer on it very hard when you can. Fast (SAFE) trail riding with some rail grade mixed in is a great way to break them in. Before my sled had 25 miles on it I had it turning 10,200 rpm. Last weekend with 1200 miles on it I had it up to 10,500 on the lake and there was sleds there with me that had a few thousand miles and still wont turn over 9,800 rpm and they never will unless you remove weight from the clutching. I should also add, my sled is 99% stock, the only thing done is a plug change. ===SRXSRULE===

well thats exactly how i planned on breaking it in, hard at times and less throttle at times, you cant exactly go full throttle through the trails anyhow, but im not gonna do a 2 mile full throttle lake run either.
