It will all be detailed in the manual. There are various opinions. Some thrash em from the word go some run em in religously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulwhite Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 what i did with mine (xvs dragstar 125) 1st 100 miles : didnt go over 35mph and didnt rev high oil change 100 to 400miles: pushed it to 40mph with low revs oil change 400 to 1000 miles : went a maximum of 55mph pushind the revs a bit harder (only a litle) service 1000 to 1200 miles: thrashed it to 65 then cruised in 5th gear 1200 to 1300 miles: found a big long hill and went down it a few times pushing the bike 3mph at a time to a total of 75 1300 to 1350 miles: went down the hill as fast as i could revving each gear as high as i could to a total of 80mph service and happy riding. i got a maximum of 70mph on a straight with a tiny bit of breeze which is brill for such a bulky bike. hope this helps.
