    put a polini 70cc kit on my zip today.....its got a leo vince tt exhaust......5 gram rollers.....68jet

    its very nippy and the acceleration is mad.....i half throttle the bike and go bout 35 mph......if i keep doing this for 500km or so will the outcome be good??

    sorry if this is a stupid question or has been covered before but i just wnt 2 know the basics of running in a 70cc cast iron kit.

    all here already but,
    running in doesnt mean just staying at half throttle for 500 km,
    just use it as you would normally but for short periods of time (10, 15 minutes), and then allow the bike to cool down.

    dont stress the bike bro..i mean no extra weights on the bike or running it on full throttle for long time..500km are a lot..make it 250 and your bike would be just fine..

    You just wanna run it in for the 500miles variating the revs (Going lower and higher in revs! not twisting the throttle like a mad man :blink: ) and taking breaks as it has been said for about 10-15 mins, if you smoke have a cig nd chat up some birds ;) just let the barrel cool down, this is all my mate has told me to do :) Hope this helps like bud :wave: :hello:
