I'm about to replace the top end on my ATC70 with an 88cc kit. I have a new hour meter which will go on at the same time. in my younger days the general rule was to take it easy for a tank of fuel on our 2 strokes and away you go.
What are people's ideas for a break in process for an ATC 70/88 ?
Thanks

At first startup, take the inlet rocker cover off and make sure there's a good spray of oil. Best test there's oil pressure after rebuild.

Warm it up gentle, gentle riding for 15 mins, then ride it how you want. Change the oil at the 1 hour mark. Don't use synthetic oil until it's got a few hours on it if you were considering it.
