How about Oliver? Also only have a rebore with new pistons, that is to say the engineers rebore and hone exactly to the size of the pistons you supply them. Obviously this will change any crank balancing you may have had done. Otherwise give me the crank, and barrels, I can rebore, hone, supply pistons and have the crank dynamically balanced, all you have to do is open your wallet and I can surgically remove a considerable amount !!

Well Thats very nice of you Hugh....but I am a stickler for trusting someone to do the job right........So who else could I trust to do the job right......So I guess I will be calling you in the morning.

I have to get the head off 1st and then the barrel to see what has caused the siezure....And oh yes is she siezed....You can stand upright on the kick start and stay there.

I did the full Oil change and clean. I also flushed the engine Oil and replaced.

She ran great this morning for the 20 mile ride to work and on the way home this evening started to lose power and get tight so I stopped. As soon as I pulled th clutch in the engine stopped dead.

So will see what I am faced with. I will call you AM tomorrow if thats OK?

Thanks
Colin.
