I take it from that that it was as bad as it looked? Good talking to you and all the best getting it fixed up and back out there.

It's not easily repairable in short time. I'd like to race in Turtmann 28-29 july

Been there, done that

Incredible! The same problem and the same results. Shubee....yes they are
So the problem was the piston and not the pin retainer gone out like we think. I never seen that before.

I use 94mm Wisco Pistons with Jaycee Alum Buttons and JayCee Barrels with No Problems I have seen the AA's Do That a few times Before so The Money you saved buying the AA's cost you a Cam and Head its like Gene Berg use to always say Buy The Best and Cry One time..
