I am waiting on a 03 GSXR1000. So what is the general opinion on new bike brake in now? Ride it like a cheap whore right from the dealer, 200 miles, three heat cycles?

I would just follow the owners manual to the letter. One less thing for the dealer to bitch about if you need warranty work

And it is one way to make your bike burn oil, have less power... need a rebuild sooner... http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Run it fairly hard... http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Here check out the link at the bottom of my post... I have done this with a lot of other bikes and it works great.

it worked for me
