    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

That mototuneuse recommendation is a little over blown in my view. Millions and millions of engines are put into service each year and only a few have problems with rings not sealing, and very few are broken in like those guys recommend.

I'm sure it's not the only successful method, it worked for me.

Well like I said the next day I have off Ill just take for a good 5 hour ride down some awesome roads and see what happens. If not then Ill redo it. I live in Florida where it rains for 5 months straight during the late summer so if need be Ill do it then.

Actually He gave you good advice.

You need to check everything when reconditioning an assembly. Again, did you check the valves and valve guides as shown in the service manual and did you check to make sure you didn't damage the valve stem seals after installation?
 
I was just yesterday looking at / cleaning up a head for a 750 and as I was looking things over I see that it has a crack on the #1 cyl intake valve guide, what are the chances you have the same problem?
