Been Around the Block
I recently finished my first top end rebuild on my '74 CB125S. I can't wait to kick the little bastard over, but I'm not sure how to break in the new parts.
Some articles have said to not go full throttle and be extra careful, some have said to pretty much ride normally and check the oil more frequently. Also there was discussion about using conventional oil over synthetic. It's my understanding synthetic has better wear properties which may not be good for break in.
Because it is such a teeny little engine, it's hard to ride it without really working the revs. Not sure how to go about this whole process.
What are your thoughts or recommendations?
