I just had my CB300F's crankshaft replaced under the recall program for this bike.  Must say that the difference is noticeable, engine much more quiet and smooth.  Only because I asked, the mechanic told me that I should take it easy with revs and change the oil after 500-1000 kms.  Has anyone else been told this, or maybe something different?

 

Thanks for any input.

Sounds like a standard break-in recommendation. 

 

I recently had piston and cylinders changed in one of my bikes, and I decided to do the easy enough break-in. 

Had this a while back..to be honest, don't notice any difference....but I am not riding very much these days...

 

Would you take the bike on a long trip then?

I don't see why not, Rhys. 

Actually, I was thinking the 300 was a bit unpowered for a long ride to say from Surat to Phuket... not enough horse power for the road..
