Chapter 3 (Engine Operation and Maintenance)
Running-in the New Motorcycle
The running-in period for the motorcycle is the first 2,500 km.
When running-in, keep the speeds within the limits stated in the
following table.
Since the URAL engine is an old fashioned design it is critical to
observe this running-in procedure. Failure to do so could result in
a burned piston or valve and void the warranty.
During the running-in period, a new motorcycle requires the most
careful attention. In the course of this period, do not overload the
machine, avoid traveling on freeways and climbing steep
upgrades. Do not race the engine or overheat it at any time.
Throttle limiters may have been installed on the motorcycle to
prevent excessive rpm's during the running-in period. There is a
label on the gas tank that states the running in speeds for 0 to
2500 km for the two final drive ratios used on the Ural
motorcycles. Failure to observe these limits may invalidate the
warranty on the engine and drive train.
