Congrats! I love mine. Plenty of power for me and very comfortable. I just wish somebody made some damn frame sliders for it! I think you can order them from Thailand or something, but not sure I want to do that. I read a ton of posts all over the web about engine break in. I ended up making sure I varied the engine speed as much as practical and staying out of the upper rpm's. I was aware of the 4K limit, but I didn't worry about occasionally passing it. I just made sure I didn't push it. There's conflicting opinions out there about break in. Some people even say you SHOULD bring the engine into the high rpm range during that time.... I don't know about that, but I certainly don't think it would be wrong to follow the manufacturer's guidelines. Many happy miles!
