Ok, so searching around leads to numerous ideas on breaking in the motor.
From 0-1500 Miles, no boost, little boost, limited rpm, redline rpm....

So I am set up with:

• Tial 46mm Yellow small spring only, rated for 2.9 Psi. (creeps to about 4.5 with no AVCR)
• Rev Limited to 5000rpm

Planning on a 1000Mile Breakin period.

What are your thoughts/experiences and suggestions.

Thanks in advance!

Regards

George

Very very informative..... I have to go for the new bearings bit too.... damn...

Can you explain how i can avoid boost? Any recommended way apart a lighter pedal? City driving tends to make you need to pull up hills and that results in a bit of boost.

I used the small yellow spring (TIAL46) to avaoid boost.... but i did pick up .1-.2 bar on my gauge and logger....

 

Ps.. Thanks Ted for those guide lines.

 

This is purely an exersize of controlling your right foot.
To keep it out of boost, downshift.
Yeah, it's going to up the revs a bit, but don't make it a habit of revving too high or going into boost too much.
Going a little higher in the revs or going a little into boost won't hurt anything - just try and stay out of it.
Good luck!
