Time for change...

Did you read that fast break-in method fully? It needs careful analysis and understanding, but I don't think the science is wrong. However if, as you say, you've done 200 miles now, it's too late anyway, so best forget it and do it the old fashioned way. Shame because you've missed the chance to get the rings fully bedded.

yep, I read it and spoke to John Hackett about it and agreed on the best way for me to run the bike in and that's what I am doing.

One of the main principles of this is not to labour the engine in any way, which is consistent with the breakin method that you posted about.
 
Yeah, it's just the timescale that differs! :D :D :D@ 50 miles or several thousand. JHP in all honesty could not say anything different than Ducati do - warranty issues and all that.

trust me, John Hackett will be telling me what he believes is best based on his experience, not what Ducati says in the manual.
 
So what exactly did John Hackett recommend ?

I'd just like to know as every new bike I've had I always followed the 'rules' and the next one is imminent ;)
