I did the hard break in method. Changed oil at 250, 800 and 1500. Constantly changing RPMs kept the cylinder pressures up, and let the engine slow the bike down as much as possible. Made 35.6whp at 5k miles, 13k now and runs very strong, very slight oil use which, I am told is fairly normal for an engine that cruises at 9.5-10k rpm on the highways for hours on end (California, where speed 'limits' are more... guidelines...)
