It's not the 'running In' (or lack of) which causes holed pistons......mostly it's lean jetting.

I posted a reply earlier but it hasnt registered ( shitte phone)
Anyway thanks for that monkey. I thought maybe my over exuberance with the throttle early on and maybe poor bedding in had led to friction and overheating.
I think the jetting is high if anything . I've kept it as is from when I bought it and resisted the temptation to lean the jetting
Its a ball ache but im looking on the positive. It gives me chance to strip some of the scoot. Check it over. Get someone experienced to check it lol .
Sort some things I werent happy with but most important find out why it did what it did.
Ive started stripping it today

Only two months since I took the exhaust etc off lol
So yesterday I strpped barrel and head off.
Piston is mint. Rings are fine. No damage to bore.
Conrod and crank fine...
So Im sitting on the shitter typing this today and thought I would just check the flywheel before I post.
Yep its sheared the rivets

Well obviously there was compression I just assumed there wasn't as there was significantly less resistance kicking it over lol
Anyways as yer can imagine am over the moon the piston an crank etc are ok hahaha
