Don't have to be that extreme! Those DTRE engines are so restricted that you won't do it much damage.

Obviously 20 mph for the first 10 mins making sure it doesn't lock up or seize.

But should be able to do 40 happily for 100 miles. Then just don't rag it and you;ll be fine.

Its not about the speed. its about the load on the engine and throttle control. You need to vary the revs and change gears lots. You want to do a few 5-10 minute rides using no more than 1/2 throttle, then gradually using more and more throttle. but stay off full throttle until its run in.
