    Three quarters of an hour at constant revs, followed by a good thrashing in the Forest?

    Whats to run in?

    Lumps in the bearings? Dont think so.

    Machining aint like it used to be, cnc took over file and leather.

    Ride it like you intend to, service it like you want it to last.

    you can glaze any engine at any age..... make it work.
