How soon to dyno a new street bike?

    Wasn't sure where to ask this then it hit me... Wera!

    I have a new Superduke 1290 that I got over-excited about and already installed an intake and exhaust on. If one were concerned about longevity, how many miles is idea? Assuming I wouldn't want to pay extra to have them do it on the dyno.

    Thanks!

    You can go straight from the crate to the dyno. SOP for a dealership I worked at.

    First time I ran my new FZ-07 was on the dyno. Gave it a few minutes to get it's juices up to temp, then I beat the dog shit out of it. Same goes for any engine I build.

    KTM already beat you to it......jump to 4:00




    Part of the assembly and QA process of the bikes are to run them in on the dyno to make sure the engine is functioning properly ad producing proper output.

    I'm sure the dyno is a great way to break it in, but I just wanted to make sure making a custom map is any harder on the engine.

    Wouldn't building a custom map be easier and better for the engine for break-in purposes?

    Building a map is a great way to break it in. Have the dyno guy do all the part-throttle/low rpm mapping first, and then work toward the upper TPS/RPM ranges.
