RUNNING IN
Before using the motorcycle for sporting activities run in the
engine for two hours at least to increase the life and the per-
formance of the engine.
During the first half-hour of driving we advise keeping a low
speed and avoiding sudden accelerations. Never open the
throttle fully.
Change the oil and carry out all the necessary maintenance op-
erations. After the first half-hour of driving, lightly increase the
rev number, but never run the engine at full throttle. Never
keep low speeds when the high gears are inserted.
Slowly drive the motorcycle for two hours before using it for
sporting activities.
