I took off from the dealer with both wheels spinning for around 20m and have driven it hard for the first 1000k's (only thing I dont do is over rev, 5000 max but it gets to 4500 on most gear changes under 3/4 throttle)Its taken 3 FULL tanks of fuel to do the first 1000 k's P.S. I havent changed the oil Edited 16/10/05 12:02 PM by shockF6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 23k's my ute had hit the limiter in 1st and 2nd. Do as the sticker say's Drive it like you stole it. I've had a lot of warmed cars and been racing bikes all my life and the best, most reliable ones are the ones I abuse from word go. Go for it have some fun.
