Spaceship1000 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Planning on riding anyone of these three days from lorain county area to head south/ southeast. Anyone interested? It can be a three hour blast if your from northern area if we start late day. If we start 3 ish or earlier it can be a 250-300+ day. I would like to scout a few roads while on this ride as well.

RHill Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 might be able to monday...depending on how much tire is left. My car decided it only wants to crank over when it chooses, so now my bike is transportation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceship1000 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Whatever hrs works for the general audience. Ryan sportbike trackgear can have you a tire in one day. If you need help installing it let me know.:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHill Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 already ordered from ridersdiscount and had them shipped to Pa where my other wheels and tire changing gear is.Maybe I'll order a more touring oriented rear and have it shipped here.

Spaceship1000 Posted July 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 I would love to ride too , stupid new bike still needs breaking in Breaking a bike in properly would be revving l through different rpm ranges such as riding twisties. Midrange revs and constant rpm changes. If your putting her you'll never break the rings in. Which is the only part your really breaking in.

Which is the only part your really breaking in.I thought it was pretty much standard practice for the first 600 miles to keep it under 6k rpms?I've never bought a brand new bike and probably never will since its a waste of money IMO, but I've heard of several people doing this so I just assumed it was standard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RHill Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Not sure if its the same with 4 strokes, but my on my 2 strokes I heat it to operating temp and cool twice varying throttle. Then a couple 5-10 min rides with high load but not excessive rpm. I do think break in is a bit of bs, racers change out top ends and go out for the next heat.
