Ine more thing to throw into your little bag of knowledge, if the bike, truely has 0 miles on it, the motor nor rings have even seated yet. A new motor or one that was rebuilt needs to be broken in. During the break in, they can and sometimes do act flukey. Compressions aren't up yet ect. Follow your owners manual for the break in proceedure and change your oil often while its breaking in.

If its not broke, Hit it with a bigger hammer and blame it on cheap imports

I just thought about this, and it more than likely has nothing to do with your problem...but you might want to change the oil in that thing....I'm not sure how the dealers do maintenance on bikes, but if that thing has 0 miles on it, and it's an 06, then that oil is 2 years old. You may want to change that before you start riding around town...Florida, the only place where you need your windshield wipers and sunglasses. At the same time.

LOL Well, I didnt want to say it that way, But the motor does need to get broken in either way (Rings seated), before passing judgment on its performanceIf its not broke, Hit it with a bigger hammer and blame it on cheap imports

airplanes have been doing this for years. After a rebuilt they take them out and put them under a heavy load and go up and down the runway a few time... take a break then keep doing it again.

Myself, and a few of my friends that own 2 gsxr's, a cbr and an fz6 all followed the break in procedure in the manual and their bikes are all doing fine. In fact one of the gsxrs and the fz6 have over 20k miles on them....Originally posted by arsenic View PostFlorida, the only place where you need your windshield wipers and sunglasses.

the "manufacturer" always has to give the "safest" advice. If they told you to ride it hard and it didn't work because the operator did something bad they could be sued/have to replace the engine. The alternative would be to break the engines in at the factory but then that would take $$$ so they don't. So the companies tell the general public what is the "safest" option for them that is the most cost effective.Comment

I'm sure you're bikes are doing fine reconstyle, I didn't say they wouldn't. In order to seat the ring properly the engine needs to be run in hard. So, by following the manual you have broken in your engine with very weak ring seating, congratulations.Originally posted by reconstyle View PostComment
