Does giving it full throttle help your bike?

[Nai]

Ok, this is a stupid question. I am sorry. When I came onto this forum I am sure I read some where giving you bike full throttle every so often cleans some thing out or does something beneficial to the bike (engine or exhaust? Cant remember). But I am a nub and cant remember.

So yeah, Nai's dumb question of the week. Does giving your bike full throttle for a couple of mile a day do anything beneficial to the bike?

I don't open her up everyday, but it is good to give her the beans every now and then

I don't know whether it does the bike any good or not, but it sure makes me a feel a lot better.

Two strokes like a good caining once in a while...clears the tubes especially with modern oils. Doesn't make as much difference on 4T's but my GSXR does idle better and run a bit smoother after a good killing.

If you're not going full throttle on a 125 every time you ride it, there's something wrong.

Its a nippy lil thing, doesn't struggle to do any speed up to 65ish, most of my journeys filtering so I can never get up to good speeds, its cheap as chips to run, and most importantly, I need this thing to last

As long as I am doing the bike good, I am happy

Thanks for the replies guys. Here's hoping I can get this thing up to 50k miles before it needs help. 3.5k so far and have not had a problem post first 50 mile.

When ive had idle problems, a good thrashing seems to do the trick!

My bike gets ragged to high hell, even if it's 30MPH all the way to the shops!!!

Oh the joys of a little bike. Seriously though, it makes you want to keep a bike well maintained.

ms51ves3: why does it need 500 miles? Are you teaching it how to be a piston?

[Ditto]

I only used 2 throttle positions on my CG, closed and open!

Still, it never missed a beat!

When I was in getting tyres for my car recently, there was a poster in the waiting room of the garage which said that you should rev your car engine to the redline about once a week.

Preventing a build up of carbon on the valves is generally a reason to thrash an engine every now and then

Got an indicated 130 today

My driving instructor told me to redline the car before the mot in 3rd down a dual carriageway as it cleans the emissions out (in simple terms) so it will pass.
