  I'm riding one. For the 1st 800-1000km i only go at 80 and below. As for rpm, just dun rev it too high can liao, no meter to see also so when the sound gets rough then change gear or slow down.

  thanks for the reply. what brand of engine oil are you using? is semi synthetic or mineral ones better for the wave? after hitting 1000km. is the running in period considered to be over?

  I used mineral oil after the 1st running in. After another 1000km, i use full syn. For me I dun mind spending abit more on my bike, so it's up to you to use any type of engine oil.

  actually horz.. i am wondering why many think that 4 strokes no need to run-in.. actually all engines in order to last longer you have to run-in.. even cars also do the same thing.. but don't think many practise this liaoz.. the same goes to 2 strokes mahz.. you can don't run-in can also use mahz.. but the engine probably will not last as long as expected lahz..

  Of course it depends on the engine design and the user's usage as well too. If the user keep whacking after running it in, it won't make much difference.

  bike price including insurance is 3700( 2nd party insurance). this price will vary with the type of insurance. howver a new one should be in the 3k plus region.

  in that case, the current caburreted waves will not in production very soon. so those thinking of getting one new better hurry. the fuel injected ones are very expensive.
