1) Make sure the dealer Offers a lot of freebies, good insurance policies (CPTL, TPL, OD, Comprehensive Insurance, just search it for you to know the meaning), and a lot of coupons.
2) Make sure the motorcycle you are going to get has not been tested yet or being started in idle just to know if it works. If in that case it will ruin the break-in process like what is stated in motoman's article.
Things to check before buying out your mc:
- Check the fairings for damages
- see if the handle is aligned from the front fork and tires and also the rear tires.
- check for leaks
- check the signal lights and break lights and your GAUGE for any broken pixel (without starting the mc and during starting your mc)
- check for replaced parts (I can attest that most mechanics and personnel would replace parts from a new mc
with substandard or used ones)
- make sure you get both keys and the ECU Password(for EFI Cash basis)
3) After buying the mc, you should consider every detail in the mechanic's orientation and ask whatever you want to ask and you should even get his/her number and make sure they put Yamaha mineral oil on your new MC (I'm sorry to tell you but they usually put synthetic so im sorry).
4) BUY ONLY FROM YAMAHA 3S SHOP DEALERS
4) Only start the motorcycle if you are going to begin your break in process. Like what motoman said, the first 20miles is the most important so when you get out from the 3s shop, you will begin the break-in process.
5) When breaking in, make sure you have warmed up your mc for 1min(it would be enough for an FI mc) and DO NOT REV.
6) After warming up, start slow(while you are still in the 3s shop) and when you get out, you can burst your acceleration.
7) During the break-in, all you need to do is to:
(I will not explain to you all of the details since I assume you already did a lot of research)
(Figure 1)(step 1)
>burst accel(full throttle) then shiftup to 2nd
>burst accel(full throttle) then shiftup to 3rd
>burst accel(full throttle) (do not shift to 4th) close throttle to engine break (DO NOT EVER BRAKE)
>shift down to 2nd (with timing, do not suddenly shift down to 2nd if you are running fast or you will drift)
>shift down to 1st (with timing, do not suddenly shift down to 2nd if you are running fast or you will drift)
(Figure 2)(step 2)
>burst accel(full throttle) then shiftup to 2nd
>burst accel(full throttle) then shiftup to 3rd
>burst accel(full throttle) then shiftup to 4th
>burst accel(full throttle) then close throttle to engine break and decelerate
>shift down to 2nd (with timing, do not suddenly shift down to 2nd if you are running fast or you will drift)
>shift down to 1st (with timing, do not suddenly shift down to 2nd if you are running fast or you will drift)
(Figure 3)(step 3)
>long bursts and quick decelerations and so on
Please be reminded to rest your mc for 5-10mins after your first 10-15kms.
