the way i did mine was run 3 tanks of gas in 1st and second gear not stressing the engine and then do an oil change it should do the trick

dont lug it dont rev it. keep it under half throttle and do like 5 heat cycles. change the oil then take it easy for a little longer. then u should be good

rid eit easy for about 15 minutes to warm it up good low rpms......let it cool down then start it up and ride it hard high rpms for another 15mins........then beat it for about 5min:devil this should make the rings seat well and give you the performance like quadfather was saying
