    For ZMR, 3-3.5k for the initial 300-400 km and 4-4.5k for the later 500 km would be better.
    No Anna, 60kmph comes up exactly at 4K RPM-I stuck under it for the 1st 1000kms.!

Later as of now it feels so much less stressed. I think yep the engine eases up a lil bit after having crossed 500kms and even better after 1000kms.

    But yes, keep it under 60 till 1500 kms atleast to get the max out of the bike.
    You are right-most of the mating of the engine parts happens by the 1st 500 kms.itself, but the manufacturer reccommends us not to put too much stress on the engine for some more time.

    • i think the owners should scan and paste the instruction written in owner manual as it will help the prospective buyers in advance.

                  • Saw one Black ZMR near Hyatt around 1:15 PM when i was on my 220, man it really looked gorgeous and the man aboard was really ripping his bike. He honked at me and started racing with me, i ignored the invite though. I was around 70-75 and he was zigzagging through traffic at 80+.

                    Still i feel Black ZMR will get neglected, as a xBhpian i recog the bike, White is the color to die for i say. Looks so royal and elegant and a head turner.

                        So, you are ripping the baby in run-in and more importantly you are inviting others for race on streets. Then, you should get a ban from xbhp (pun intended).

                            Yeh duniya kitni choti hai re... BINGO. It was you for sure, i saw you before you go up the flyover, till the flyover i remained behind you and was enjoying ZMR's rear view, then i had to go to Safdarjang enclave so took a turn from below. Didnt know your bike's REGN NO as would have given you a thumbs up for choosing a nice looking bike.

                            You will kill me sirji, i didnt follow run in at all, i loved the way he was moving through traffic. Had a small crash a few days back on my 220 so remained extra cautious today and didnt try to trail him.

                            I had thought that when i see a ZMR on road, that guy would be going easy completing run in but you zoomed past me from right lane in full josh, seems you are really enjoying your bike.
                            It was really shine and clean too so your 1 virtual infraction gets removed, no ban.

                            • people who have got deliveries of their zmr`s are really lucky.We pune people have to wait for min 3 months.Its so strange.Pune being india`s highest populated city when it come to 2 wheelers population,and you don`t get to c a single zmr in Pune and its been 4 months since the launch date.Its really sad.Hope HH people are reading this and start immediate deliveries of ZMR`s in Pune.

                                ya true bro......its such a nice co-incidence.........i have experience in riding zma-r so im familier with zmr....its almost same, so zipping it thru traffic is not a issue......during the run in many times i reached 80 km...cant control myself. i have done 3 trips to chandigarh and yamunagar on my zmr.

                                i try to keep my bike in top shape.....i did teflon coating to it just a week back......and i cover it when not in use, so that the bike looks younger even when it grows old.

                                @coolboy hope to meet you agin in similar fashion.,

                                any how buddy where u live in delhi.
