someone was talking about breaking in their buggy in another thread and it got me to wondering how many people actually did what was recommended.I myself dont have the patience,I drove my yerf hard from the get go and never had any engine problems,I'm doing the same with my roketa.The dealer I bought the roketa from said he doesnt believe in the break in stuff,but then again,he offerred no warranty so what did he care,lol
So how many members out there had the patience to take it easy for the first 5 hrs on their buggy?

Not me. I went up and down my 100' driveway twice at slow speed, that was my break in. I believe you should break them in like you would normally drive it. Now, I wouldn't tell the dealer that... Twisted Evil

Same here. I went easy on it for about the first 7 seconds then I just basically went fast and my Go Kart works very well engine wise.

I ran mine kind of easy for about the first hour. Then I drained the factory oil, put in the stuff I swear by and immediately began to "Drive It Like I Stole It" Twisted Evil
