I’m wondering what to expect for break in. It gets up to 120 Celsius at maybe half an hour in the 40 to 50 mph range. Doesn’t take too long to cool down. In the 30 to 40 mph range it is running around 100 Celsius. I’ve only put a hundred miles on it so far. When will temps start to normalize. The motor is unexpectedly powerful. I could get a speeding ticket if I’m not careful. There is more motor than these roads need

I think my Hk1 took around 250miles before I noticed temps starting to drop. Lots of short trips. Somewhere around 600 the temps went pretty normal.

Ray has the bottom two covered, he is coming to the minibike show in PA. As you see the proof... Keep that hotrod @ 40 and under. To avoid hot spotting. Yea, I know just like a Ferrari, that's a lot to ask!

Yeah, for at least a few hundred miles. It will be worth it, but........it will be tough.lol
