Yeah, there is no break in for bearings, since they don't actually touch anything. I agree with the above. I am nice for the first few miles, then progressively get more aggressive. Vary the throttle like Joe said and change the oil at 20 miles and 100 miles, then I do 1,000 then it is good after that.
