Do not...I repeat do not slip the clutch until it's fully broke in and even after it's broken it, minimal slip or say goodbye to the clutch fast. And I would raise the 500 mile to 1k to break it in. Give it a few half throttle pulls around the 500 mark but that's it. Don't go WOT until after you hit 1k. It will chatter a lot until you get to the 500-600 mile mark. Don't worry it will go away.
I did this the exact way when I broke mine in 4 months ago. The chatter is gone, and the clutch grabs like a ****. I still do not slip it though. That's a killer when it comes to these Spec clutches.
