Running in....Please pass
Hello all.
I’ve just put the engine back in my @ after having the bores honed and new rings fitted. Although the bike is low mileage the last owner gave it much too easy a life and synthetic oil from the start. This resulted in glazed bores. I’ve run in a couple of new bikes in my time. While doing this I’ve never caned the living daylights out of them, but then again I’ve not been easy on them and it’s seemed to have worked. They all run fine and use no oil.
So a few questions……………does anybody know what sort of oil is put in a brand-spanking bike to assist the motor to bed in, as per most manufactures for the first 600 miles, or is this a myth.
I’m happy with my running in method but would be interested in any views………
