Welcome to the pack. Shiney side up!! 
yeh i know what ur saying lets just say that if my original bill didnt have the extras on it then it would take me years to get that system on it.Welcome. I'll be over here, waiting to pay my bike off before I drop another gob of cash on accessories. IE, jealous.![]()
wow you've been riding... sounds like a good plan too.wish i'd thought of that, was in such a hurry to get out of store that never crossed my mind. but,on the other side of that, i'll be able to judge whether it was worth the money or not. reading some posts and other aticles i'll probablly wait and save for what you have instead of going for slipons right away. bought mine (black) last saturday, did my first service thursday night. have 750 miles now hope to get over 1000 by next saturday.sunrise in searcy is bringing in a dyno this coming saturday. we'll see who's telling the truth about rear wheel h.p. i don't know how your triumph ran but these bikes are a blast. lots of low and high end,best of both worlds. rick![]()
hey thanks for the link that looks great. I skimmed it quick and will reread tonight.Wouldn't recommend Motoman's breakin' crap at all. Nor anything close to it.
If you're not going to follow Kawasaki's break in procedure, which you obviously aren't, I'd pay attention to what you find here: http://www.ashonbikes.com/content/running
Comes from a top Castrol Engineer with actual testing behind it, as opposed to the "THEY DONT WANT U 2 NO TRU SEKRET OF ENGIN PER4MANS" garbage or anecdotal "evidence." I swear, looking at the Motoman website reminds me of those really bad real estate infomercials.
Not taking a shot at you or your buddy's advice, this is just a topic that frustrated the life out of me until I found the resource above. Post up "what should I do for break-in" and you get thirty different answers, none of which have any real justification or authority.
