make your own dyno--is it safe?
Ok I will be getting a pred tommarrow ( [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] ) and it will be brand new and require some break in. Ive done lots of reaserch, and decided that the way I will be breaking it in will be the "ride it hard" way. That being said, I have ridden preds before and know how powerful they are. And I dont have the room (or the *****, yet [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] ) to break it in like I want to. So, I was wondering if it would be safe for the machine to kinda make a homemade dyno, like set the bike on jacks and give it the gas and break it in like I want to (I know all about giving it the cool down peroids and how you supposed to do it when you on a dyno) Is this OK to do?

i would have to say thats the worst idea i have ever heard of.... if i got a brand new 4 wheeler i would want to ride the thing not set it up on a home maid stand.... besides when your braking it in just dont hold it wide open at first and after 5-10 hours start opening it up all the way just dont hold it wide open for a for more then a couple seconds at first..[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

It's a good idea but it won't work. You have to load the motor, and you can't do that on a jack. Now if you had some way to load the motor like some rollers hooked up to a pump then that would work. Like you, I like to break my motors in hard, but like someone already said, you have to get too **** about this. Make sure you motor is up to operating temp before you drop the hammer on it.
