Hehe, indeed, fun isn't it ;)

A clutch break usually involves not going full throttle (usually around 1/2 for max), don't rev high/redline, shift smooth and they actually want alot of stop and go city driving. Of course, try not to ride the clutch. What they really don't want you to do is overheat it. Some manufacturers say 200-300 miles, other even day 500 to 750miles. In the end, it's upto you. But the better you take care on breaking in a clutch, the longer it'll last and the more abuse it can actually take. I did mine for one roll-over of the tripmeter, 1000kms (~600 miles) just to be safe and make sure. Yes it's agonizing, but it's worth it.
