My dealer also said to me that it didn't need running in, but the way I think of it if you look after it in the early days, it will look after you in later life (possibly use less oil etc...)
I used varied throttle but didn't exceed 4000rpm for the first 500 miles, then increased my virtual rpm limit by 1000rpm every 100 miles after that.
I've done 3000 miles now and it feels much looser and revs out very sweetly.
It may not make a difference but it just helps with my piece of mind.
