FWIW, I broke in my FIRST engine (08') the factory way...it lasted 11k mi. then broke a valve and DEMOLISHED the engine..
With the new engine(09') I've done the motoman way and as far as a i can tell...HUGE difference in engine noise and performance/efficieny, for the BETTER...only time can tell how long this one will last(hopefully 100k+ lol)
idk if it was the break in or if the first engine was just bad....but so far with about 2k on the new engine, its heaps better than the old one ever was...
