Just got my 04 R6. I have heard numerous types of break in periods for this bike. I drove it about 120 miles at an average speed of 70 MPH and about 6000 to 7500 RPM's. If anybody can give me some help on the proper way to break in my bike I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

I am in the process of breaking in my new bike...

The bike hates me for it, she WANTS to go F - A - S - T ! ! ! ! ! ! !

At about 320 miles as of today and the bike is just laughing at me saying..."You have no idea what you are in for..."

PS breaking in a bike HARD is great for a race bike that you are going to destroy after 5,000 miles anyway, but for your baby, do it the right way...

She will thank you for it by lasting for years instead of months.
