Alright, I am looking at putting in a new piston and boring out the cylinder. I have everything apart but I am getting a little confused.
The bore currently measures between 85.28mm and 85.42mm checked at eight points along its length. Standard bore is 85mm.
The piston that I took out is a .25 over (its stamped on the rings and the top of the piston)
Only issue is that when I measure the piston the largest reading I can get is 84.83mm?
What's up with that? Can a piston actually wear down that far? Or did they accidentally stamp the wrong number on a standard piston?
With these measurements my piston clearance is .45mm which is huge compared to the .05mm it should be.
What do you guys think?
