98 r1
01 996
02 r1
06 1000 rr
staring with the 93- they were broke in on the dyno-btw my bikes bone stock usually put out more ponies to being broke in this way,to redline i might add-clunky motors if taken over 7k rpms-that aint seating the rings properly for 1- never had any engine noise , engine issues on the 93 and on up- your comment is based on what?as long as rpm isn't held at 1 spot and shifted with frequency- you will have no problems

 

take care of her! one bad **** piece of machinery! let her breath during the break in so its not a complete surprise when you let her rip after the 500.

 

Congrats dude. I'm heading to the store this weekend
to see it up close I've only seen pics on the web. Look sweet to me. Post pics.

Interesting side conversation. I dont pretend to know everything about breakingin a motor, but my understanding is you're really looking to vary the rpm so as to vary the pressure and forces on the rings. This is definitely one of those religion type conversations on babying an engine vs. being too agressive and ruining it. Car engines dont even require break-in anymore, so I'm not sure whether or how much the rules have changed in the last 10 years or so.

I sortof prefer to let the engine be in a constant flux of acceleration and deceleration; at the very least this means simply building slow revs and then releasing the throttle on decel; otherwise its just moderate to spirited runs up and down the gears. But I also like to give the engine the occasional run-up to a slight higher rpm than i am limiting myself to overall. Break-in cycle wise, limit the engine to 60% max rpm, then 80 % max rpm , again, with the occasional run-ups to a higher level, then let er rip around 500 or so and change the oil.

What do you guys recommend.

 

take two stock bikes- dyno them with 100 miles on em stock-then baby one as recommended- then run one up to redline, varying rpms alot-do this for say 1000 miles-then redyno and see which one makes better numbers from their previous runs

 

how much did u guys pay for your 08 otd?i finnaly pick mine up on saturday,work does not permit me to go any sooner.the long awaited wait is over for alot of us.also seriously guys where are the pics?

 

i wanna see the pics from what i have seen i dont like the looks that much but i want to see other angles and real pics from real owners see if they change my mind. so far im liking th 07's better but id like to see more pics.

You two should wip them out, take pictures next to rulers and pm them to each other. This should help solve the discussion.

Otherwise

How is it we have three members stating they have purchased the new 08' 1krr's and none of them have pics?

I am calling BULL****!!! Until I see some pics.

 

you ain't gay- the guy -ucking your dick is[8D]

 

$13,200 OTD. Repeat customer at that shop. Dont know if that was particularly good or bad. They were the first shop in the area to have them. Salesman said a non-repeat customer paid closer to 14k.
