Over here in the UK we have a weekly rag called Motor Cycle News.

A couple of years back one of their journalists had a brand new GSXR750 which he "broke in" according to the motoman method. He bragged alot about how it made more power blah blah blah.

It didn't last long though. A few (ok maybe 10) months later the motor was shot. When Suzuki took it to bits they pointed out all the main and big end bearings that were trashed due to poor break in.

In short the motoman method is fine for piston rings, but not for bearings.

I care far too much about the longevity of my bike to do it.
