Hi All,
Well, day 3 of running the bike. I probably now have about 15-18 miles on it, and it seems to be running great. I'm running it a hair richer than the 4.5 turns open setting (maybe 4.75 turns?), and it doesn't seem to bog down at full throttle and idles really well.
I put the tensioner on yesterday, and it seems to have smoothed things out a bit...so I ventured to the Super Target - maybe 3-4 miles each way and I rode at 1/2-3/4 throttle (varying). Everything went great...
So now my question is: how far do I dare venture out during this break in tank? I'm thinking about taking a 20 mile round trip ride...with a stop at the halfway point.
Just don't want to damage the new motor...but then again, this is what the motor is for, right??
Anyway, I'd like to hear your opinions...
Thanks,
Mark
