Mine never slipped, but I also took it easy and didn't beat on it for 500 miles.

You should be fine if you take it easy for a week or two. I did the same thing with my Mx-6 some years ago. Gave it a couple days of easy riding and it was all good. Did you have your flywheel resurfaced before hand?

I HIGHLY doubt it should be slipping at all...... that doesn't make sense.

how much pedal free play do you have? broken in or not it should not slip under normal driving.
