I am with Steve and some of the other guys, i was relatively easy for the first 100 miles, moderate thru 250 miles, and been spanking friends on their HD's since 300 miles. I have owned 8 bikes over the last 15 years and have never followed any real break in procedure. Never had an issue either..
I rode home from Russellville (1015 miles). There are no real break-in instructions after the first 300 miles. Word is, the engine is broken in before the bike is assembled.
I did change the oil and filter as soon as I got home.
