New Build: My Exhaust Is No Longer Leaking After Rides. Is this a sign my rings are seated?

[yuckfoo]

Title pretty much says it all. I no longer have black shmootz leaking out of my exhaust after riding. Is this a sign that my rings are seated?

I'm pretty sure that the black shmootz is from incomplete combustion. It sounds like your mixture, carburation, compression and ignition are all good (complete combustion). Congrats, I wish I could say the same about my bikes ;-)
