Hey there.
I will likely pick up my CRF250L tomorrow, and as such, have to ride it home (cape town to karoo). Since it will be a new engine, I contemplated of course, doing it properly.
Out of interest, as a topic that interests me, which method of riding will you choose if you had to do this?

I am in the "FortNine" park of engine break in (don't labour it, ride normal range, now and then wind up to red line, wind down.... stop for a cool down, rinse and repeat).
But Keen to hear your opinions and methods. The first day will put 300km on it, and I need to make it count. I want happy, sealing rings

PS: Happy to be back on WildDog again after many years of idleness.

Cheers
marlon
