hmm...never saw this one before sounds like it makes sense... i usually do it like fulltiltrider said

Heat cycle it twice. recheck torque when it is FULLY cooled down.
quick ride shifting through all gears, cool down... Beat the hell out of it.

All you have to do on a two stroke is seat the rings, if you think that takes hours and days you're mistaken.... Ride it like you stole it.

And please don't coat the cylinders with oil or run a real rich mixture for the first tank or so....run the same oil/gas ratio you plan on running...again, rings seating is the key....
