Triumph Daytona 955i Handbook

General Information
During the first 500 miles (800
kilometres):
• Do not use full throttle.
• Avoid high engine speeds at all
times.
• Avoid riding at one constant
engine speed, whether fast or
slow, for a long period of time.
• Avoid aggressive starts, stops,
and rapid accelerations, except
in an emergency.
• Do not ride at speeds greater
than 3/4 of maximum speed.
From 500 to 1000 miles (800 to
1500 kilometres):
• Engine speed can gradually be
increased to the rev limit for
short periods.
• Both during and after running in
has been completed:-
• Do not over-rev the engine
when cold.
• Do not let the engine labour.
Always downshift before the
engine begins to 'struggle'.
• Do not ride with engine speeds
unnecessarily high. Changing
up a gear helps reduce fuel
consumption, reduces noise
and helps to protect the
environment.
