[QUOTE="sparkywig, post: 593451, member: 3541"] I ran it in for about 300 miles, changed the oil, had it jetted on a rolling road and then ragged it all the way to Belgium and back. It's still going strong 12k miles later. Get your mixture sorted, check the timing and valve clearances and replace the oil regularly. It's an engine, not a piece of china, just keep the revs up and don't lug along in 4th gear at 1500rpm. [/QUOTE]
