Break-In

[rkooienga]

Alright I have two questions.

The first is What is an exceptable compression psi. For a freshly rebuild banshee with 65mm bore. (not sure if bore matters.)/ what is the method to complete said comp test?

Secondly What is the correct/most commonly used process of breaking in a banshee?

Test...both plugs out, hold throttle wide open, kick until needle stops climbing on the gauge. Same for other side.

Break-in...warm up good, checking for leaks. Shut off, cool down, re-torque head and cylinders. Warm up again then ride it for all it's worth.

Acceptable PSI in a stock head rebuild with a couple bores like yours, 130ish. Do you have a stock head or cool head on it?

Dennis is spot on with break in. Just be get it warm and check it all over a couple times. Take it for an easy cruise and listen to it. If it’s all good, beat the snot out of it.

I usually give it few heat cycles of mild ride before I step on it,with checks in between and,as someone already said,listen to it,if some new sound appears, shut it off and investigate.
