Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

I've got about 125 careful, partial throttle miles on my '84 Aero 50, with new piston rings and honed cylinder.

Is this thing broken in yet?

Thanks

I'd say absolutely. Figure ~4 hours run time and dozens of heat cycles? Time to see Whottle She Do?

I can't belive that you waited this long. Only brand new bores need that level of break in.

Cool, thanks for your replies.

Went full throttle several times today - kinda feels/sounds like a chain saw with a stuck, open throttle, but it'll sure go - I can feel the additional power with the higher revs.

I sure appreciate the advice.

if you use standard 2 stroke oil you are good, for synthetic oil it can take up to 700 mi. for the crosshatch to disapear.
