Cool I'm Back!!!!!

New Sig. New Attitude. These German girls are just so sweet.

I just turned the clock past 104 miles. All the break-in theorys are confusing me. The dealer gave me advice that was a little more agressive than the "Rules". Its a pretty good balance between the extreme I have read about. Please this isn't an invitation to open that topic again.

This mornings ride to work was everything I hoped for. It was cool this morning and traffic was light. There were plenty of sweepers and some tight turns. It was hard not to push the revs way up. I found some roads near work that were just perfect: Tight turns, narrow roads, lined with trees and farm land.

It doesn't get any better than this!!!

Everyone has their pet break in theory. I'd just follow BMW guidlines from the manual. Or do a search heare and you get ideas like "full speed ahead" to babying it.
