    Back in 2008 when I got mine, I was up to 850 miles before my first check and nothing at all happened - no alerts, nothing. My dealer had actually advised me it was quite okay to go over with no problems.

    My dealer said up to 1000 miles helps with break in. That's what I did and 4500 miles zero problems. Been using starton and 93 octane smooth spyder tentioner power commander v getting 31.5 now.

    That's really a question you should be asking your dealer. When Nancy was in that boat, our dealer was OK with 1,000.

    I think the Nanny only kicks in for important stuff like burnt out tailight and stuff. Seriously I don't think the nanny is programmed to shut you down, however BRP and your dealer is the only ones who can answer how many miles over they will tolerate.

    The Nanny doesn't ''kick'' in at any specific mileage.
    Its not mileage related.

    I usually go 1000 on all my new bikes--barring mechanical issues. My dealers have always been okay with that.
