Break-In period

Post by the496rocket »

I currently have put about 50 miles on my aero with the 70cc kit, the book for the kit says 300 miles for break-in before wide open, 300 miles isnt really necessary is it? i would think 50 miles is enough, but I'd figure Id ask you guys first. Sounds like 300 miles is just something to cover their butts in case of a break, no warranty if abused. :?

I'd run it for at least 100. Plan a trip somewhere, group ride, whatever. 25 miles each way, even at your speed that's less than a 2 hour trip. The idea is that you need to seat the rings before you wring it out.

Ok, Ill do that. The problem is Its getting so dang cold here that its hard to ride without installing a cab on the bike. Plus it gets dark at 7:00, and in about 2 weeks after DST it will be dark at about 6:00. I hate this time of year. :x DO they make snow chains or studs for scooters? :roll:
