I'm at 20 hours and it still says break in. What are other owners experiencing? I know, only 20 hours....Bad snow in the Sierras this year

There are many factors involved in this...but what I have found in my experience is...the harder you ride it, the quicker break in ends.

I am at 229 mi and 8%left. 2 of the rides where whimpy, did not gain much on break in, but the workout rides..minuses the breakin quick.

D&d Powersports spent time on the dyno with a 850 and said the difference between break in mode and non break in is 1hp on there dyno. It just uses more oil and smokes more .
