Well actually I was very lucky as I thought I had a spare cylinder,of which I didn't.I had a similar one that would have done,but it was off a later model,and I'm fussy that way.So I took the old one and gave it a good clean out,then I got my honer and gave it a good hone out and it has turned out very well and it will be fine.There is still a little bit of pitting at the start but the piston doesn't go that far so it won't be a problem.The rings of course are no good and piston will clean up fine.I've got the cylinder ready to be installed I've just got to pull the crankcase apart and clean out all the junk that went inside there,but it looks like it will be all good.Which I'm happy about that.Nothing a bit of elbow grease couldn't fix.A bit of a close one though I guess if I'd left it any longer then nothing would have been usable.


Here for a good time,not a long time.
