I'm very lucky to have a friend that owns a shop with a dyno. I use the dyno break in procedure, and I have had very good results. Lance
I used this technique while breaking in my 2006 Honda ST 1300. It runs great and never uses oil. Planning on doing this when I pick up my F6B next week.
1st gears is the breakin period after that you ride it like Big Larry says. you ride it like you stole it. If its going to break you want it to do that as soon as possible but if its been built correctly it will last your lifetime. Same thing I have done with every new engine and it hasn't failed me yet!
