  AHH!! Stop. You have to measure the piston ring end gap! And modify so that's within spec. It's common to see at least one, if not both, rings out of tolerance as it's expected that the user till measure and setup accordingly. The ring end gap tolerance is in the haynes.

  Irongamer on here used to run the Athena kit so might be worth dropping him a message, for a good starting point.

  @Glynn123 Just picked up my re-bored and ported barrel off Mick yesterday, looking for £225 including royal mail 1st-class signed for delivery and a free Mick Abbey sticker. The Namura Piston Kit cost me £65 from p.j.m.e and Micks labour on top so £225 for all the parts is the best I can do.

  @2stroketerry thanks for the kind offer but my head and barrel are on their way after a call to Mick. Seems for the kind of time I'm looking for a bigger carb isn't required

  Yeah 4FU barrels are plated. So are the Athena barrels IIRC. It's about £130 to have it replated. PJME will probably drop a liner in there if you wanted them to.

  @dt125matt No, I mean I used Mick Abbey to get my cylinder done. Can't really comment on how it fairs to stock, since I did loads of mods and didn't really notice much...

  @louis-james Don't know about TZR cylinders. But 3MB 3MBP 4FU Are bolt ons. The 3BN has a slightly bigger bore, so shorter stroke, as a result, a 3MB con rod will bit too long.

  @glynn123 It's advancing the whole ignition system which is less than ideal. Increasing the risk of detonation and pointless if you just get an aftermarket ignition system since you can alter the spark electronically.

  How Many DT's in that video. That's mental. I bet over there they can actually keep their bikes without them getting nicked left right and center!!! :@

  @irongamer727 You can go overbore. Really need to modify the valve when you do. And you can have a new liner put in.

  @irongamer727 I distinctly remember not using them on my rebuilds, so shouldn't worry
