Cylinder questions
-
@2stroketerry I bought an entire engine for £85, the cylinder came with it. I'm thinking about trying this guy. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F401431331293

Hi, yes a few people on this forum have had there barrels re bored by him and said his work is good and you won't find anyone cheaper.
-
@2stroketerry so it's worth a try?
-
@2stroketerry just out of curiosity how much is that barrel set up for sale for?
-
-
@calum £96 for postage with piston, rebore and all that feels pretty good.
-
@irongamer727 From PJME?
-
@calum ehhm no, that eBay guy
-
@irongamer727 Oh ryt. Well is the piston any good?
I'd recommend PJME as they're the best in the business. Nothing beats the best.
-
@calum well if it were me I'd just buy new rings, gudgeon pin and small end and use everything.
-
But then it is me so I don't know goodnight
-
@irongamer727 Was the piston forged? If it were cast then I'd think twice about reusing it. But if it were forged and there was no obvious signs of wear.
I have done that before, reused piston and rings on a cylinder that saw only a few k. It's absolutely fine. Just if you are thinking about it, a hone rings gudgeon pin, small end and circlips is well worth doing whilst you're there.
If you don't mind whipping the cylinder off again to do these items at their service schedule then it's not really a problem.
-
@2stroketerry how much for your head etc...
-
New rings needed for my Yamaha original piston, where should I look?
How do I know what size I need?

@irongamer727 PJME.
