Engine break-in
There is never a more important
period in the life of your engine than
the period between 0 and 1000 km
(600 mi). For this reason, you should
read the following material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1000 km (600 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themsel-
ves to the correct operating clearan-
ces. During this period, prolonged
full-throttle operation or any condition
that might result in engine overhea-
ting must be avoided.
EAUS1840
0–500 km (0–300 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above
4000 r/min.
500–1000 km (300–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above
6000 r/min. NOTICE: After 1000
km (600 mi) of operation, be
sure to replace the engine oil,
final transmission oil and the
oil filter element.
[ECA12931]

occur during the engine break-
in period, immediately have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehi-
cle.
