break-in tips
Everyone will have their own opinion. There really is no right or wrong way. I bought a 07 civic SI a month ago and since day 1 I drive it like I stole it. Same thing with my atv when I bought it. When I took it apart to put the cam and piston it, there was virtually no wear. To each thier own.

try easy riding for the first few hours, since its new, ya might wanna jump some small hills to soften the shocks. and hit the yard a little bit to get used to the handleing. just advice, check the shocks to see if they are bolted tight. mine was new off the floor, and after i rode if for a few hours the front right shock came apart, i guess because it came off an assembly line it didnt have that much custom work to it. just advice.

I heard you shouldn't use on older engines. I'm not an expert but I'm guessing that maybe it too viscuous? I put some in my F150 a few years back, it had about 80K miles and the rear seal began leaking about a week later. I use it my quads, and the 2 stroke sleds and boat as well. It's quite a bit more expensive but I figure those engines work quite hard so it can't hurt for the long haul. Just my 2cents.

appreciate it, was thinking about my 2003 F-150. Usually Fords start to ooze a lil oil as they age (or used to). So far so good, but I do have 94K on it, and I drive it harder than I should. Put one of those K&N air systems on it two years ago and I still drive it like a kid with his 1st 4-bbl. muscle car...
