Keith, the paper work on my bmax says keep it under 4500 rpm for first 5 hrs... run at different rpms within that range..... change oil and go . change oil every 50 hrs after that..... 50 seems a little long to me..
That is interesting about 5 hour break in and the 50 hour gear oil change. I have been changing my drive oil at 20 hours when I change the motor oil. I guess I can go every other motor oil change for the gear oil now. That will help with the costs too. The B-Max uses about 4 quarts of gear lube at around $10.00 per quart or so.
