Welcome to the forums.

Quads dont need a "break in" period. Just make sure its warm before you get on it.

If your Blaster is brand new then I suggest you go by what the Owner's Manual says. If it's uses, however, I'd suggest you just ride it as you wish.

Two Stroke Engine Break In

[SEE: http://www.blasterforum.com/do-yourself/315-how-break-two-stroke.html#post2553]

After engine has been installed and all fluids replenished (coolant/water, gear oil etc) you must then break the engine in properly. Improper break in results in lower reliability and possible engine seizures. Use the gas and oil mixture ratio that you intend to run after the break in. Check all fluid levels periodically during the break in. Check the carb jetting periodically during the break in.

Part 1 Idle:
Start engine and let idle with a fan blowing on the radiator to help it cool properly. Let idle for 15 minutes.

Cool Down: Shut engine off and let engine cool for a minimum of 30 minutes.

Idle: Repeat first step.

Cool Down: Repeat second step.

Part 2 Note:
Be careful not to put unnecessary strain on the motor during the break in. Do not climb large hills or go through deep mud. If possible use a mild treaded tire. If you are on the sand do not use sand paddles.

Ride: Ride for 15 minutes varying your RPM not to exceed 50% of normal riding pace.

Cool Down: Shut engine off and let cool for a minimum of 30 minutes.

Ride: Ride for 15 minutes varying your RPM not to exceed 60% of normal riding pace.
