Most engines are baby-ed for the first thousand miles from new... others say thrash them from day one to loosen them up !

keeping it under 3000 rpm means your probably putting excess load on the fresh engine by changing up realy early and getting in a high gear as soon as you can at low rpm this is bad for a new engine A few Rpms dont hurt fresh engines if your sensible too much load will and that can be boost or labouring the motor in too high a gear
