[QUOTE="omrik88, post: 1376871, member: 116035"] Thanks Julien, Like i said before, i'm trying to solve this problem without having to spend too much money, if i can. I don't have a compression gauge ,and a visit to a mechanic will not be cheap. The overall feel that i get from the bike - when i kickstart it i feel a good resistance from the Kick, it's not soft. the engine feels strong. Could i "assume" from this that the compression is ok? I don't know how to perform a Leak down test. Could a condition of "sucking transsmition oil" happen due to a worn out piston and/or piston rings? Could i improve/fix this situation by changing the piston rings(only)? or would i have to change the whole piston kit? I would rather keep using this piston if i can get the engine to work right... * About piston/rings, how do i know the correct measurments that i need? i know they are sold in different sizes(bores). * If i clean the head and top of the piston,could this improve anything? I hope i'm thinking in the right direction... [/QUOTE]
