Hard to kick is a good sign, easy means its time to rebuild. Did you mean to say it's hard to start?
Most modern bikes are plated. They generally don't need to be bored. Plated cylinders wear very little compared to pistons and rings. Generally, you can just drop a new piston in. It is wise to measure the piston to wall clearance. If it's too wide, the cylinder will need to be replated or sleeved.
2-strokes generally do not need to be honed as it just wears into this plated coating. Oil consumption isn't exactly an issue with a 2-stroke.

Well i removed the plug and its still hard to kick(barely moves).Well i took off the pipe and found a bottle cap in it bocking the hole.I dont know how in the world that got in there so i think the engine is siezed.Can the cap in the pipe caused the motor to sieze?

The expansion camber pipe or the silencer pipe? Cuz i think the expansion camber is to thick right?
The cap might have blocked the exaust, making it hard to kick because it can suck air in but not expell it out, u know.
Did u kick it with the cap out of the pipe yet?

The crank shouldn't "hit" your rod. Can you explain a little better??
Crank kits can be $149 on up if you need one, but I've never found one I need at the low price. You'll also need gaskets, main bearings etc.
