IMPORTANT
BREAK-IN (RUNNING-IN) INFORMATION
FOR YOUR MOTORCYCLE
The first 1600 km are the most important in
the life of your motorcycle. Proper break-in
operation during this time will help ensure
maximum life and performance from your
new motorcycle. Suzuki parts are manufac-
tured of high quality materials, and
machined parts are finished to close toler-
ances. Proper break-in operation allows the
machined surfaces to polish each other and
mate smoothly.
Motorcycle reliability and performance
depend on special care and restraint exer-
cised during the break-in period. It is espe-
cially important that you avoid operating the
engine in a manner which could expose the
engine parts to excessive heat.
Please refer to the BREAK-IN (RUNNING-
IN) section for specific break-in recommen-
dations.
