Hey Black and anybody else LUCKY enough to be getting a new bike,
check out this site and read the article on breaking in a new bike. I've done this with my last two bikes and I think it really works. It makes sense. Sorry if this is a re-post. What do you guys think about it?

well my Gixxie had 120mi. on it, it went to the drag strip today, no strap, 6.90@113mph, hows that for breaking it in? Strapped and a few miles it, it should run 6.60's@115. weeeeeeeee

Well, that's what the article says to do. Break 'em in hard. It's worked for me with my last two bikes.

6.6 @ 115? How come it's running so slow?

















JUST KIDDING! I'd say that's fast. REAL FAST. God damn Gixxers anyway.... :D
