I have approximately 370 miles since the top end was rebuilt. I actually bought the bike with only 60 miles on the top end rebuild. After the rebuild the bike was started and allowed to run for awhile before changing the oil and filter. The oil was changed again just before I bought the bike.
I was informed that I should re-torque the cylinder head bold down again after about 300 miles. My question is how often should I check the cylinder head bolts to ensure they are torqued down to specs? Is this common practice, do most of you guys do this on a regular basis?
One other question. How many miles would you suggest I put on her before I push the speed up to about 70-75? So far I've been trying to keep it under 65, and varying the speed as I ride.
