There is really nothing to look for. I would say take it easy on the motor until you run 4 or 5 tanks of gas through it. After a couple tanks of gas, you can have short bursts of speed to help seat the rings, but don't sustain high engine speeds or loads until then. Even after that it will continue to loosen up until it has maybe 100 hours or so on it. Good luck. A properly broken in Honda engine will seem to run about forever.
