So I recently did a full rebuild with new low hour OEM crank, crank seals, all new gaskets, pistons and new (bought used) ADA head with 35cc domes. I've been reading up a lot on how to break it in but not much talk on whether to use mineral or synthetic and whether it applies to my case. Reason I say this is because my cylinders weren't over bored and no damage was done to the walls so I'm doubting I need mineral oil. My crank is also already broken in and was taken out of a WB that was ridden recently.
So, my game plan is to run 32:1 first tank with yama lube doing the whole 10 minutes on/off heat cycles starting at 1/2 throttle then 3/4 throttle then 90% throttle while while running a slightly richer mixture.. making sure to ALWAYS vary the throttle. So I'm actually only breaking in a top end even though I have a new crank.
Does this sound like a game plan? Am I safe running synthetic to break in? Really trying to get as much input as possible to prevent a cold seizure or any damage during the process.
Thanks!
