Vehicle Break-In Period
The break-in period for your vehicle is defined on the previous page.
Please read the information carefully.
Engine and Drivetrain Break-in
1. Fill the fuel tank with gasoline. See page 37.
2. Check the oil level. See page 83. Add the recommended oil as
needed to maintain the oil level in the safe operating range.
3. Complete the New Operator Driving Procedures outlined on pages
60-61.
NOTE: Avoid aggressive use of the brakes. See Brake System Break-in.
4. Vary throttle positions. Do not operate at sustained idle.
5. Perform regular checks on fluid levels, controls and areas outlined
on the daily pre-ride inspection checklist. See page 56.
6. Pull only light loads.
7. During the break-in period, change both the oil and the filter at 25
hours or one month.
Brake System Break-in
Apply only moderate braking force for the first 50 stops. Aggressive or
overly forceful braking when the brake system is new could damage
brake pads and rotors.
PVT Break-in (Clutches/Belt)
A proper break-in of the clutches and drive belt will ensure a longer life
and better performance. Break in the clutches and belt by operating at
slower speeds during the break-in period as recommended. Pull only
light loads. Avoid aggressive acceleration and high speed operation dur-
ing the break-in period.
