Running in 70 kit

I am thinking of getting a polini 70 sport but the only thing putting me off is tht i have to ride at 30mph for like 500 miles. is there anything you can tell me tht will make me buy one lol cos i want 1 but cannit be bothered to ride at 30mph thanks

 

its so hard to run in a 50

the key is to making sure the jettinga dn oil setting is spot on

but the 70 is much faster so it will be worth it

 

if i were u,n it on for 100 miles at 1/4 throttle, then bump ot up to like 1/2 throttle for say another 100 miles, then id just have fun but try to take it easy and not full throttle for long periods of time till youve done the 300 miles, then should be fine

 

on a 50 quarter throttle :w00t:

 

ok thanks ps is tht wot u did and is your kit running good

 

yep dats true as long as your sensible i dun 100 miles straight at 30mph never leting it rev high after that you will feel and notice it runs smoother and then after that be gentle with it till your up to the 300 mile mark, i run mine in for about 450 miles coz i couldent wait any longer and mine was sweet till it was straped off
jus stick to quiet long roads lol

 

lol yer bud i took it easy for 300 miles then absoutly canned it for 5000 miles, im now doing a 172 conversion and when i took the 70 engine out and checked out the barrel is was pristine mate.

Run it in good, wind out oil pump, run on decent oil, let it warm up and yourbe fine, also get someone who knows what there doing to fit it.

Have a look through older posts and use the search or something bud all your questions have been asnwerd 100's of times before

 

ok thanks

 

honestly its worth it if your sensible running it in like Major Rel14b1lty says warm it up, get the best oil and dont full throttle it for atlest 300 miles you will be fine and you will love it, i would still hav my 70 now but i upgraded to a 180

 

wot speed does your bike do at the moment?

 

speed atm about 45-50 ish

 

do i have to do 500miles what bout 200 if i only go 30 and revs are very low and btw does a laser xpro work well with polini 70 sport

 

laser x-pro+polini sport 70=spot on my friend

 

if your saying keep the revs down to run it in, what happen is there is a hill between you and the garage your getting the work done at??? :msn1:

we dont all live in london

 

u mite wanna put a cap full of oil in ur petrol tank everytime u fill up just to keep it nice and lubed up and if u need to blast it to get out out trouble or sumat that little bit extra oil will protect the barrel, only do it for first 50-100miles tho coz wont be nessasary after that.

 

hey just wondering is it possible for a piaggio nrg powers stock exhuast to be fitted with a 70cc kit. just it limits the revs so it safe gaurds me reckin the engine?

cheers

 

Thats the way I've been running in stuff for the last 20 yrs.

I work in engine hrs though, as marine stuff don't have odometers.

First 1/2 hr, baby it, next 5 hrs, don't exceed 3/4 throttle and keep varying rpms. Don't excessively load it as well.

(Minor, I would be a tad concerned with running heavy rollers as I'm unfamiliar with scooter timing strategy. I would be worried that the engine isn't revving enough to get it to retard, if they actually have a retard curve)

Next 5 hrs, keep varying the rpm's but give it short bursts of full snot every five minutes or so.

Also, (forgot to say) heat cycle it. Once a 1/2 hr or so, let it cool down then warm it up before continuing with the run in.

After 10.5 hrs, go over all the fastenings, (retorque) go back to your desired oil/fuel ratio and do your final jetting/tuning.

Run it a bit fat during the run in but don't drown the engine with fuel as the piston won't expand enough to take the high spots off.

I think of run in as geography class.

If you microscopically look at a freshly machined cylinder or piston, it looks like the Swiss alps. Pointy mountains with valleys in between. After run in, the mountains look like those flat top mesa's you see in cowboy movies. They still have the valleys to migrate oil but the mountain tops are flat and have much less tendency to catch on each other and smear metal.

Also, running in a crank is a load of shit. If a crank takes anymore than warmup to settle in, it's out of true, incorrectly installed or made out of melted down cat food tins in China.

 

Your fuken drunk!
