Wondering if there are any tips or suggestions for the first start after a top end rebuild? My '67 CD175 Sloper had the top end rebuilt by the previous owner and they never fired it up. Since I've owned it I've given it new plugs, oil and battery, adjusted valves, cleaned the carbs and replaced all carb o-rings and gaskets. I've got spark. Anything in particular I should consider before starting it for the first time in 30 years? I've never broken in an engine and I realize that there is a process to follow to do so. It's the dead of winter here so I won't be riding this bike for some time. I just want to fire it up and see where it's at.
As always I welcome the feedback from those of you with vast experience with such matters.
