mahlzeit
have a look to the owner's manual (page 50, running in):
'During the first 1,000km (600 miles), do not
operate the motorcycle at more than 80% of
the maximum speed in any gear. Avoid full
throttle operation, and do not operate for a
long time at one speed.'
I've done it this way and had no problems. So the max. rpm for the first
1000km
should not beyond 6400rpm.
