Jrod324 Posted November 19, 2013 Report Posted November 19, 2013 Just got my engine back from a new set of wiesco 64 and a half pistons and now gonna put it back together with new gaskets now i have a question now that i have this new top end rebuild... I was told the first tank of gas to baby it let the pistons get lubed up and no WOT till after that first tank (correct?) now after that how often should i do maintenance on the bike every ride/month/few months? And what are the major maintenances? Thanks Quote
wayne_smith97 Posted November 19, 2013 Report Posted November 19, 2013 2 heat cycles and then ride WTO thru each gear and then have fun! Quote
n2otoofast4u Posted November 19, 2013 Report Posted November 19, 2013 What made you rebuild it this time? Quote
Jrod324 Posted November 20, 2013 Author Report Posted November 20, 2013 What made you rebuild it this time? The genious mechanic i let do my work brought down my jet from a 320 to 300 and the mechanic that did my engine said that it was leaning out too much and popped my left piston so i need a new set and now im just trying to maintain these for a while so i dont gotta waste another couple hundred fixing another blown piston Quote

Finch Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 i usually get em warm let them cool off make sure all the bolts are still tight then rip it like normal. Quote
n2otoofast4u Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 Where are you from? Im going to guess you need more help that just break in info. Quote
wayne_smith97 Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 What you mean 2 heat cycles? I dont get what that means Pretty much what finch said. Let run for about 15 minutes shut if off til it cools down then do it again when the second heat cycle is done. Recheck head torque and ride wfo 1 Quote
oldskool Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 you should do a leakdown test first on your maintain list. Then do a comp test just to see where your at. I think 125lb psi is stock. Quote
03DMshee Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 And find yourself a good de-cell spot and run a lower gear... should seat the rings nice Quote

Jrod324 Posted November 20, 2013 Author Report Posted November 20, 2013 K kool thanks for the info everyone.... I got another question when putting back together besides the flywheel (from what iv been told) do most of the other screw/nuts gotta be torqued down with certain lbs of torque pressure? Cuz im trying to save 150$ on having the mechanic put it back together and was just gonna do it myself with youtube help and manual Quote
oldskool Posted November 20, 2013 Report Posted November 20, 2013 I usually do most by feel, but to answer your question. All bolts have a torque spec, you will find them in service manual. Quote

You know the which tool ill need that comes with a gauge or guide on it to know how much torque/pressure iv given it? Quote
