[QUOTE="DKT735, post: 151854, member: 17690"] I understand your desire to get the most use out of your new rings. Everyone is different but I have seen more riders try to get the maximum life out of pistons and rings that end up with a catastrophic failure that ends up being more expensive then regular scheduled replacement of parts. From my perspective the best thing you can do to extend the life out of your top end (and that includes the rings) is clean your air filter regularly and be meticules about making sure you don't run dirt through your motor. Things to do include, keeping the reed valve bolts and carb hose clamps tight, keep your bike reasonably clean especially the carb and the airbox, keep your air filter clean. Also, when you clean your filter make sure you don't have any "dry spots". It doesn't take long to ruin a top end by running dirt through it. My 2 cents. Have fun. [/QUOTE]
