Hello from Canada - I have been riding various motorcycles for 42 years - I was a marine mechanic and a Honda dealer. Your video is very good. Just one thing -- wear some solid protection gloves, your hands are the first things to reach out to the road if you go over.
@@AjithBuddyEnglish I have instructed at 2 motorcycle safety schools in Canada. The first thing to teach a new or non rider is how to stop a motorcycle before starting the engine. I have that lesson written if you would like a copy of it. And I have part 2 = the emergency braking lesson.
Exactly what I needed. I am getting a RTR 200 in couple of days and was looking for break-in tips. This is well explained. You have gained a new subscriber. Thank you.
Bro, Great effort. Actually this is an important thing that every new riders must to know before rev-up the engine. This is not only for bikes but for all the engines. I think no bodies highlighting this points. My best wishes for you.
😃😃 Couldn't sustain my urge till 1000kms. After 850kms of riding sanely, the open road tempted me to hit the top speed. Done 10k kms No problems till date whatsoever.
Someone pls clear my doubt.... I'm owning a Apache RTR 160 4v (1400kms ran in 50days, max speed 75kmph, avg speed 45kmph) now I'm planning for a long ride of 350km up and 350km down, so is it advisable to take my baby-engine on a long ride? Will it affect my engine in any way?
This is a remarkable video with superb explanation and suggestions for anybody looking to improve engine health and life. Thank you brother, it was amazing and very clear. My doubt is whether this applies to CVT engines like scooters also, because for my new scooter, I have been following most of the steps that you have recommended but since i have to ride on highway a lot, i am not able to vary the engine speed/rpm too much. but i have been strictly keeping it below 50kmph. it has been 850km. Please advise brother, i hope riding for 40-45 kmph for 80-90% of the time wont damage the engine??
i have seen a vidro.. they test 2 new engines... 1 with proper breakin and one with revving hard... then they opened the engine and there was no difference in both engine component lengths, diameter... so it does not matter
40+. The best I got is 44. Wait till first service and tell the service center guys that you are getting low mileage. They will tune the carb for more mileage.
I have riden my rtr 160 4v at high rpm and a speed of 85 before 1 servincing only for once and for short time and also rev ita little more for 2 times so how much it will affect other then this i have strictly followed all the points
That's sad man, it's may be because of oil burning.. take it to the service center as soon as possible. The valve seal may be faulty. They will do it in warranty
Hornet vs Apache 160 4v vs Fzs v3 vs Gixxer. Which is best to buy. My priorities are a) mileage of 45km b) Can you tell me, of the above options which is best in quality and can be used without any issues more than 5 years. c) Availability of spares and cost of maintenance. In the market, there is lot of confusion arises in bike enquiries. Some people are saying that the above bike engines are working properly for 1-2 years only and some regarding non availability of spares for above bikes. Could you please suggest me a correct bike according to my priorities.
All four of them are excellent bikes in the category. Hornet, 160 4v and gixxer are better in power and mileage. Spares availability depends on your region. All these bikes' engines will easily last more than 5 years for sure. Take a test ride of all and decide
Ajith, great information in clear and detailed manner. One doubt. In the new Jawa(6 gears and no tachometer), should we ride on all the gears occassionally without over revving. That would surely cross the recommended speed limit. Also, read somewhere that it is a good idea to change the oil after 500 kms. Then again at the first service. What is your advice?
Yes, you should use all gears and can occasionally go above the speed limit for that. I think that's an unnecessary oil change when first service is 250-500km away. Thank you Tom 😍
Missing these points or over racing sometimes woudnt affect the engine..it affect when missing them regularly.. anyways seen first this level of vedio on this topic..
every single cylinder motorcycle i have broken in doesnt burn any oil and doesnt have problems at all. How? i kept the throttle to like half to 3/4 and always change the rpms when cruising. as he said in the video. and if there was uphill i used to drop a gear and slow down a little bit so the engines rpm werent too low for the uphill
Content is very nice and well explained. But going by 1/3 of red line RPM may not be possible. I have bought Yamaha FZ V3 two weeks ago and I maintain 4 to 4.5k RPM and speed of 45 to 50kmph during break-in period. I travel daily for 50kms in city and engine starts heating up after around 15kms of riding in city traffic. I guess this is normal. Isn't it?
I have honda cb hornet 160 r i was not maintained break in period first 120 kilometer ....now i am maintaining break in period is it create any problem to my bike
Bro I have my RTR 200 BS 6, a week ago. And I feel some hard gear shifting while riding, On the lower shifts.... Is it normal in break-in period???? And my RPM starts above 1500.... Is it okay??
Hello, I just bought r15 v4 a week ago, but unfortunately I went almost 300 km with a pillion on it. I also drove it continuously at 70-75 kmph speed. Now I think my bike is producing more noise. Does it mean that I have damaged my engine??? Plz answer
Bro it's fine. Just change the engine oil and filter for now, you can buy the oil and filter and get it changed at a local mechanic. R15 engines are reliable and high revving. And then give the bike for its first service again after 1k or 1 month to the service centre.
Hi sir, I have bought a Honda Click 125i scooter. My question is, does your style of break-in can also be applied to my scooter? Does it also mean that if I have reached 1,000 km, I can already ride my scooter normally and increase my rev and speed? Thank you.
Bro .....the one good video i was looking for. One small doubt, I have already rode it till 58kmph. Will there be any issues? My bike struggles in small speeds, like 30-45 in 3rd and 4th gears. Also it has been 3 days I got the bike and rode only 130kms. I'm really concerned about the engine life. Need your help here. I can sense a kind of noise when it's slowed down in traffic. The engine also heats up very often. I travel 24kms up and down every day.
New engines heats up, that's common. What kind of sound are you hearing? May be it's the tappet noise.. Anyway don't worry much as most issues be solved itself when it run more kms. You just take care of the engine and wait until first service. And tell the issues to the service center. They'll rectify it. Happy riding 👍🏻
Hi thank you for the information, I have my apache 200 first service done at 681 km, and in that period two days of harsh riding(full rpm, above 50kmph probably 73) today after first service again harsh riding (full throttle, top speed 105 kmph) (when you give it to your friend). Now my concern is how much damage i did with my bike.
Nice video bro! I recently did my first long drive(300kms) on the apache 200 . I faced some discomfort in my lower end tail bone while riding. I feel it is the seat which is causing this. Is this common or should I buy some air cushion for the seat? What do you suggest?
I had similar issue.... realized that it's actually the way we postition ourselves on the bike.. I just pulled myself back and corrected the way I rest my arm on the handle that took care of it.
Brother mines apache 200 4v bs6 been following your tips for 480 kms now..but the pickup is very lesss...and i tried going to 60s and i can feel the vibrations...why is it?? Is my engine under tuned?? Or is it normal till first service ?
Definitely brother. But do not let the engine to over heat. If it's a highway run(in low speeds) then no problem. But in traffic the new engine may heat up quickly. If so take breaks frequently.
Sir i got my Dominar 250 recently and i rode it 40 Kms upto now in which 10 Kms i was pretty harsh on the throttle, i redlined it several times and the remaining 30 kms i rode it gently within 4k-5k RPM with a speed of 50-70. Now, when i came to know about Engine Break-In period i am not going to rev it hard anymore. But please tell me about that 10 Kms which i have ridden harshly , will it realy affect my engine ? Just for my Consern Sir..
I have used motul and TVS chain lube, and found TVS' is more lasting in rainy ride. Some says gear oil is better than chain lubes, but have to test that..

Don't worry Pushkar Prathap, over-revving for a couple of times and for such short periods won't do any damage to the engine.
I've taken my Apache 1604V after one week of Purchase till 107 of Speed,there was no problem instead the Pickup increased.
My bike is giving little white smoke. Very little. 780 kilo run only. Apache 160 4v
That's sad man, it's may be because of oil burning.. take it to the service center as soon as possible. The valve seal may be faulty. They will do it in warranty
