Same here as T_Rob666said.
Ride it normal at whatever speed, just don't act like a drag raceat wide open throttle.

Speed limits here in Texas are almost all 70 mph and I would have been run over if I only drove 55. [sm=biker.gif]

Just no Wide Open Throttle....and they told me that, up too 500 miles.
So you're goo to go.

There you go. If it makes you feel better, still don't do the WOT till you get past 1000 miles (I did), but get her out there and do some cruising at 70 mph...she'll be fine, man.

Less typing, and more riding! You gotta hurry up and get that first service out of the way!
