How to Properly Break in Your New Motorcycle by goodwayfairing.com

 

You've just got your hands on a brand-new motorcycle, and we know you're eager to hit the open road. However, breaking in your new bike properly is crucial for its longevity and performance. In this blog our team at goodwayfairing.com will go over the steps to ensure your motorcycle is ready for the adventures ahead.

1. Follow the Manufacturer's Guidelines
Every motorcycle comes with a manual outlining the manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure. These guidelines are tailored to your specific bike, so make sure to read and follow them carefully.


2. Vary Your Speed
During the first 500 miles, avoid maintaining a constant speed for long periods. Vary your RPMs to help the engine parts wear in evenly. This means alternating between city driving and open-road cruising.

3. Avoid High RPMs

For the initial 500-1,000 miles, keep the RPMs low. Over-revving can cause unnecessary stress on a new engine. Gradually increase your RPMs as you approach the end of the break-in period.


4. Change the Oil Regularly

New engines produce more metal shavings as their parts wear together. Changing the oil at around 500 miles helps remove these particles and keeps your engine clean. Follow up with another oil change at 1,000 miles.


5. Check the Tire Pressure and Fluid Levels

Regularly check your tire pressure and fluid levels during the break-in period. Proper tire pressure ensures good traction and handling, while adequate fluid levels keep your engine running smoothly.

6. Inspect Your Bike

After each ride, give your bike a quick inspection. Look for loose bolts, leaks, and any other issues that might need attention. Catching problems early can prevent bigger issues down the road.


7. Gradual Increase in Performance

As you approach the end of the break-in period, you can start to push your bike a bit more. Gradually increase your speed and RPMs, but continue to be mindful of how the bike responds.


8. Enjoy the Ride

Breaking in your motorcycle doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it. Take this time to get to know your new bike, how it handles, and how it feels on the road. It’s all part of the experience!

Properly breaking in your sport motorcycle ensures it performs at its best and lasts for years to come. At goodwayfairing.com, we want you to have the best riding experience possible. Happy riding!

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
