Break-In period: The Hard Thing!!!

[mejie]

---

planned to apply this kind of method of breaking in my new Kawasaki Fury from Lilo-an to Bogo.... Just wanna share to those who have new bikes and to those who are in the break in period of their bikes.

On the Street:
Warm the engine up completely:
Because of the wind resistance, you don't need to use higher gears like you would on a dyno machine. The main thing is to load the engine by opening the throttle hard in 2nd, 3rd and 4th gear.

Realistically, you won't be able to do full throttle runs even in 2nd gear on most bikes without exceeding 65 mph / 104 kph. The best method is to alternate between short bursts of hard acceleration and deceleration. You don't have to go over 65 mph / 104 kph to properly load the rings. Also, make sure that you're not being followed by another bike or car when you decelerate, most drivers won't expect that you'll suddenly slow down, and we don't want
anyone to get hit from behind !!

The biggest problem with breaking your engine in on the street (besides police) is if you ride the bike on the freeway (too little throttle = not enough pressure on the rings) or if you get stuck in slow city traffic. For the first 200 miles or so, get out into the country where you can vary the speed more
and run it through the gears !

Be Safe On The Street !
Watch your speed ! When you're not used to the handling of a new vehicle, you should accelerate only on the straightaways, then slow down extra early for the turns. Remember that both hard acceleration and hard engine braking (deceleration) are equally important during the break in process.

Or you can just go to the transcentral road, have something to eat at balamban when you get there and go back using the same route. All those stuffs mentioned by mejie can all be done on that route w/o remembering the details


Ride safe!

tanan nga bikes nga ni-agi sa ako mga kamot ky gidala nko didto, aside nga wlay traffic you get to enjoy the twisties and the mountain view, not to mention the fog effects bugnaw kaayo hehehehehe

bro, its hazardous .. and the road is slippery when it is rains

caution lang bro when driving on wet surface, nobody man pod cguro would be too stupid enough to go really fast on any wet surface unless imo tyre is rain type...

after sa imong break in bro, nag ilis dayn ka oil?

ako na lang mo-answer ani, yes mas advisable nga imo ilisan ang oil after nimo ug break-in. ayaw na hulata ang nka-sulat sa coupon nga 1k odo reading, lahi na pod na nga oil change on that mark dala tune-up

[mejie]
