Engine break in coleman ct200u

What are the Engine break in procedures?
Is there a consensus or is some opinion too?
Is it the same for a hisun 196 and a predator hemi 212?

( I have both the HISUN stock 196cc but am putting on a predator 212 with a TC..... Once it comes in......)

My buddy MIke from NC (monroe) said really just take it easy on it for about 10 hours if I understood him correctly..... I understand he's on OldMiniBikes too..... small world...

Aside from a couple of early oil changes I do nothing.

That aside, I have never broken in a lawnmower, generator, power washer, snow thrower, etc, either, and have many, many hours of trouble free operation.

That's just me....

Vary rpms and dont hold wide open , one hour it's a done deal , change oil and tear it up ! Why change to a Predator ?

as I understand it there is no tav for the 5/8 shaft that doesn't cost 179.....

You may have a point there , just change the crank shaft , I happen to have a GX200 crankshaft that might be for sale about $75 cheaper than a Predator .

True but it is much more involved doing the crank shaft..... than swapping motors....
