Alright so I got the CMR BBK from VTcycles. What kind of stuff do I need to do to break it in? It comes with an 89 jet. Do I need to replace anything else? I've been reading a lot about checking compression first, how do I go about doing that? OH and what should the Pre-mix be, or do I need to Pre-mix at all?

Premix of course. Contact Steve or Keyoni at VT they will have the best advice that won't void any warranty. :thumbwink:
