rl153 Serious Thumper Offline S40 Just right! Posts: 907 Bloomfield,CT Gender:	Question 06/21/11 at 14:21:39 Would you say its a good idea or a bad idea to ride full throttle once or twice whenever you ride . Not to go top speed but just gun it a few times in like 3rd and 4rth.? Does that create wear and tear ,or is it benificial? Thanks

It needs to be opened up every so often for even wear on the piston walls, yeah thats it, even wear. Live fast, die young, leave a slightly mangled corpse....lol

Usually get on the highway and get her up to at least 70 for some miles - works for the bike and does wonders for me too...

I would drive it to town to get the oil and filter. Loved kicking in passing gear. It looked like someone was burning pine tops in the rear view mirror.
