I am glad somebody else is saying this, because I feel like I killed that horse already and kept on swinging.

I won't break an engine in any other way, I don't even heat cycle them. Get it warm and then hard acceleration/deceleration over and over and over and over again. Never had any problems with gaskets so I think heat cycling just wastes valuable hone scratches, once the sharp edge of the scratches are gone, you aren't going to do any further seating your rings.
Worst that's going to happen when you skip heat cycling is you would have to replace a gasket. |

bookieboy is correct, if you experience problems, it is because the engine was not built correctly. There should never be metal to metal bearing contact so there is nothing to "completely mate". A hard break-in would expose the problem right away while a gentle break-in may allow you to get hundreds, maybe even thousands of miles out of the engine, but, it will still suffer an early death.

Yeah, well I started playing with motor cycles at age 13, and I'm 80 now. Maybe I did the math wrong. 1950 to 2017. Geez, maybe I am a geezer, huh?... ARH
