I have 3 hrs. on it now. I've been tryin to keep it under half throttle but it is also impossibe. Did you guys have the will power to do this? I got stuck on a huge hill climb and almost rolled but luckily the locker came in handy at the last minute. This thing has huge power, I could barely notice a difference between riding a passenger and just myself. But seriously, what beak-in procedure did you guys follow, Please say the manual id FOS and I could ride it hard from now on.

My dealer said to just be nice to it at least for the first day, that was it. When I broke mine in, I waited until I had 10 hours though until I opened it up. You will notice when the rings seat themselves and such because it will run much smoother and start easier. I now have 15 hours, and from 10-15 hours there was a big difference in power. It seems the more I ride it, the more power it has! I drove around half throttle most of the 10hours, bringing it up to 35-40 now and again. I know how you feel...the power is RIGHT there and it's hard not to use it. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
