  1. You know what. I just think the oe pistons are shite. Which is why I’m going Pistal this time.

  3. Yep. While we’re in there I’ll renew the bearings and possibly renew gearbox. A big refresh basically.

  15. Did the broken piece clip a couple of valves?
     
  16. Hello mate! I’m not sure. But I seem to go through more pistons than a errrm piston go thougher...
    Anyhow, nice to have a modded engine refresh. It’s just paying for it that’s a bit rubbish...

  17. Valves look ok. Surprisingly. It came out as one piece. Jus fell apart once removed from liner. The liner is goosed though

  18. Yep, that’s a familiar sight... I thought about Pistal’s last time. Went Ducati OE. 100% Pistals this time. Lighter and stronger according to research.

  19. I’m surprise that they’ve gone lighter, I thought that might have been part of the problem.
