Title: Re: Cylinder Post by: Chillinthemost on November 01, 2005, 11:13:19 PM The shop you bought your parts from will probably do it for free if you ask.
Title: Re: Cylinder Post by: NP04Foreman on November 02, 2005, 08:40:46 AM So i should just call them and ask them if they will hone it out for free? also if i did it at home would i have to take the motor off anyways or just the top of the cylinder head?
Title: Re: Cylinder Post by: Mrs.Nightbreed on November 02, 2005, 09:03:57 AM You don't have to pull out the whole motor. You have to pull off the head and the cylinder. Then take just the cylinder and the piston to the shop. If they won't do it for free at the place you bought it I can get it done for you at a good price.

Title: Re: Cylinder Post by: Chillinthemost on November 02, 2005, 09:44:34 PM I'm sure if you buy the parts from Haps in Sarasota they will hone it for you. If they charge you it would probably be less than $30.

Title: Re: Cylinder Post by: Chillinthemost on November 03, 2005, 08:05:14 AM Buy a shop manual and follow the directions. Just a guess, but I think you are new to wrenching.
Title: Re: Cylinder Post by: NP04Foreman on November 03, 2005, 08:35:55 AM well my friends dad is going to help me do it cauz he's done it too... i need to get it done right away though cauz my parents still dont know and my dad is planning a riding trip in the next 2-3 weeks...

Title: Re: Cylinder Post by: kodiak-jason on November 03, 2005, 09:36:09 AM Did you go one size over on the piston and rings, or did you stay stock bore? If you went one size over a hone isnt gonna do it,you have to bore it. If you stay stock measure the ring end gap with new rings and see what ya got,and go from there. Ask your friend's dad he should know what to do.
