During the break in period try to vary the engine speed as much as possible. This isn't particularly easy since they tend to try to keep the revs pretty constant and change speed by changing the gear ratio. It is good to speed up and slow down and not ride at a constant throttle setting for long periods. Also avoid rapid starts and let the engine warm up for about a minute before moving off when you first start the scooter from cold to allow the oil to circulate. This is good advice even after the initial break-in period too.

Also, get a tube of blue Loctite and put it on every nut and bolt on the bike.
