As a tech, I agree with rebuilds being broken in for a little while, then drive it like you normally would. For a factory built engine, give her hell, thats what they were meant for. I have often been yelled at in the shop by service managers, parts managers and even the general manger once about revving a freshly installed short block I just put in, my response was, if they didn't want it to do that, then they shouldn't have designed it to. Also, with my SV1000, I was told by a suzuki rep to ride it alternatively hard and easy in the first 300 miles to break into the electroplated cylinder, I have 18k hard ridden miles on that engine and she never gives me any trouble.
