I ride at WOT most of/all of the time...

Stop it. This is very bad, ESPECIALLY during break-in. You should not ride your bike near it's RPM limit (8000 for gy6 bikes, 12000 for 2-Ts). You should not operate ANYTHING with an engine like that. It's bad for the longevity of your engine PERIOD, high RPMS=heat, heat=BAD, ALWAYS!!!

I post this because I have seen more than a few people say this. Please don't abuse your engines.
