Exceeding the specified en-

gine speeds while running

in will lead to increased engine

wear.

Keep to the specified engine

speeds for running in.

Do not exceed the rpm limits

recommended for running in.

Running-in speed

<5000 min

No full-load acceleration.

Avoid low engine speeds at full

load.

Do not omit the first inspection

after 500 - 1200 km.

Brake pads

New brake pads must "bed

down" and therefore do not

achieve their optimum friction

levels during the first 500

km. You can compensate for

this initial reduction in braking

efficiency by exerting greater

pressure on the levers.

New brake pads can ex-

tend stopping distance by a

significant margin.

Apply the brakes in good time.

Tyres

New tyres have a smooth sur-

face. This must be roughened by

riding in a restrained manner at

various heel angles until the tyres

are run in. This running in pro-

cedure is essential if the tyres are

to achieve maximum grip.

Tyres do not have their full

grip when new and there

is a risk of accidents at extreme

angles of heel.

Avoid extreme angles of heel.

Brakes

How can stopping

distance be minimised?

OE

Each time the brakes are applied,

a load distribution shift takes

place with the load shifting for-

ward from the rear to the front

wheel. The sharper the motor-

cycle decelerates, the more load

is shifted to the front wheel. The

higher the wheel load, the more

braking force can be transmitted

without the wheel locking.

To optimise stopping distance,

apply the front brakes rapidly and

keep on increasing the force you

apply to the brake lever. This

makes the best possible use

of the dynamic increase in load

at the front wheel. Remember

to pull the clutch at the same

time. In the "panic braking situ-

ations" that are trained so fre-

quently braking force is applied

as rapidly as possible and with
