I think I'm with Ferrett on this, however I ride
gingerly most the time anyway. None of my bikes,
since my old H1 have ever seen redline. But that's
another story for another day. For the first 100 miles
I'll do mostly easy riding, nothing constant. staying below 4000 rpm.
After that, I'll run it up a bit.... get out on the interstate and venture out
a bit farther and at a bit more constant speed. I'll do my first oil change
at 600 miles and then my second at 1200 going to synthetic at
that time. After that first oil change, I'll ride it normally with the
occaisional fast acceleration, but again, nothing even close to red line.
