Message: [QUOTE="Micahdawg, post: 885327, member: 21668"] Do you think there is any risk of significant damage if this is piston slap. My goal was to just buy another wiseco top end kit when the time comes, but I didn't want to buy a $100 kit if this bike wasn't going to come together. The KIPS valves do have alignment marks. I think it's just to make sure the valves all open in the right positions. I'm still wondering if this can't be a spark plug issue. The bike calls for a B10EG and I'm almost positive that I have a B8ES in there. Someone told me the lower the number the hotter the plug? I don't know man. All I know is I need a stack of cylinder base gaskets if I keep yanking this jug after every ride :) Micah [/QUOTE]
