Breaking in...............
What are peoples thoughts on the best way to run in a new bike?
Breaking in...............
This is just what I done and could be wrong , but it's not harmed my bike
No keeping in the same gear for long periods ( motorway cruising )
I tried not to labour the engine , always used correct gear
Not too much redline ,I did give it a handful every now and again but didn't let it Rev out
This was all for the first 1k miles after that just used as normal
Also remember it's not the the engine to think about, your bedding in brakes , tyres too

I mark the throttle at half open with tip-ex.
Then just don't go beyond that up to just before first service.
On the way to the service, I rev it out a bit more to flush the oil round.
After the first service, off you go normally, but change the oil again and filter after another 700 miles.
