You must all have heard about the term bike run-in period (or break-in period). In simple terms this is the period where you need to take utmost care of your Bike’s engine, and the dealer and the manufacturer will advice you not to rev hard, and stay within specific rpm limits till you reach a specified mileage.
Most manufactures mention 1000-2000 kilometers as the run-in period. So, this is the time when you should be extra careful about your newly acquired motorcycle.
In the new bike's engine, all internal core components such as cylinder, piston, etc are brand new and the bike may done hardly a few kilometer before it reaches you; hence the engine needs to settle down making things inside it smoother.
All moving parts of the engine are manufactured in such a way to fit precisely with one another while it is running. But in real time (practical term) this can be done after you run-in the bike for certain kilometers, during the run in period these moving parts rub against each other, get polished and they get synchronised perfectly. During this period lubricant plays a vital role by setting a thin coat of lubrication on all engine parts.
So one should handle the bike in a gentle way. If you rev it hard to reach the red line in the run in period it will make more metal to metal contact resulting in higher wear and tear which may have grave repercussions in the longer running of your motorcycle. So, proper break in provides longer engine life.
