Some people have asked what the best oil to use for breaking in a new engine and most people don't know what the best way is to break in a new engine.

To help with this one.
Our advice is:

The best oil to use is a mineral oil with lots of zinc or a 'break in' specific oil.*
The best way to break in a new motor is to run it hard!
The exact proceedure is outlined here on this site: http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm

Once your motor has been run in, swap out the oil for your favourite Motul synthetic product and happy trails!

*Sorry, there is a Motul Break-In oil, but available in the US only at the moment.
