My motor only had 3k miles on it but I honed anyways. There was nothing too it. You don’t really have to get near the squirters.

Interesting that you decided to hone. With such low millage on the motor, the stock crosshatch should still be perfectly visible - just as new. Even a 40-50K Miles well kept motor would exhibit a decent crosshatch not requiring a hone
