Is there a break in period for the Z?

The owner's manual says that you should keep it below 4,000 RPM until 1200 miles. You probably have one in your glove box... Check it out. I don't know of

I don't know of anyone that has said anything about 5,000 miles. After 1200 miles you're good to go. I also don't recommend you change the oil until 3,000 miles, but other people think you should do it at 500 or 1200 miles (or both) and honestly I doubt it's going to make much difference either way except cost you money or not.
