RIDING INSTRUCTIONS
Running-in
Running-in instructions for engine 
and transmission
 CAUTION
Excessive revs while running-in the en-
gine increases the wear of the en gine. 
Engine faults during the run ning-in pe-
riod must be im me di ate ly re port ed to a 
specialized Sachs dealer.
 NOTE
During the running-in period, ride in fre-
quently changing load and rpm ranges. Se-
lect winding and slightly hilly routes. Avoid 
constantly low rpm counts and full throt tle 
under load.
Running-in new tyres
 CAUTION
New tyres have a smooth surface. They 
must therefore be roughened by care-
fully running them in at various slanted 
positions.
Only then will the surface obtain its full 
grip!
Running-in new brake linings
 WARNING
New brake linings must be run-in and 
will not have their full friction power until 
after 500 km. 
The slightly re duced braking effect can 
be com pen sat ed for by an in crease in 
the pres sure on the brake lever.
During this period, avoid un nec es sary 
hard braking actions!
-  During the fi rst 500 km:
  Less than 1/2 throttle.
-  Up to 1.000 km:
  Less than 3/4 throttle.
 CAUTION
The fi rst inspection must be carried out 
immediately after the fi rst 1.000 km.
You can save yourself delays by mak ing 
an appointment with a spe cial ized Sachs 
dealer in advance.
