What the recommended steps for a break- in after a top end rebuild ? Oil, valves, etc
Replaced heads with new valves, springs, valve guides; new 96 mm pistons, and cylinders. 500 miles ? |

I dont go past 3/4 throttle and 3/4 max rpm and constantly vary the load, and let off in gear a bunch to help seat the rings, i change the oil at 100 miles then again at 500
after about 1000 miles i start to drive it normally. It will be tight and run warmer the first 1500 miles or so ive noticed. |
