not good to use 'throw' and 'bike' in the same sentence, you've got an excellent day for it mate

It was using 1 litre of oil every 600 miles so the top end was rebuilt new piston rings valve stem seals and all new gaskets , ive just done 100 of the 250 they recommend but took it up to 8000rpm a couple of times overtaking will that harm it ? , running in at the revs they recomend = 60mph nevermind its nice to have the bike back though just hope the oil useage has now stopped
