Hello guys pick up my new 2010 Kawi Brute Force 750i about two weeks ago, have not had time to write it much. Just wondering what you guys recommend on breaking it in other than what the manuals says to do. Any advise will be appreciated.

Don't do what the manual says other than change the oil. Ride it like you stole it! If you baby it, it will be slower.

Its ok to make the engine pull under load. But don't just race the engine at high rpms setting still....................The valves and rings need to seat properly............And yes after break in get that bad oil and filter out of there...........

It ok and good to ride it hard but dont just flogg the crap out of it.
The idea is not to keep it at the same rpm. You should ride it normal till the motor is completely warm through and through, flog it hard then go back to normal riding, its a good idea to do that for 20 minutes then let completely cool down then repeat. after about 3 or 4 times of that shes broke in
