[QUOTE="DannyMoto07, post: 1180911, member: 76870"] I wouldn't BORE it out any larger... but I would hone the cylinder smooth to remove any damage this caused. Then install brand new rings in the cylinder first and check your gap... I don't know what they are on your bike but they should be less than .010" Then reinstall your piston, use PLENTY of 2-stroke oil on it so that you don't scar the inside of the cylinder walls. Now... if/when you get it started... DON'T RIDE IT FLAT OUT. Do not open your throttle more than 3/4 the way until about 10 to 12 hours of riding. Go easy on it... The rings need time to seat properly and the motor needs to get used to the new piston, heating and re-heating the metals to break it in slowly. After a good 12 hours or so... go ahead and goose it up a bit... but don't thrash on the thing for a while. Breaking in a new piston is a process... if you skip a step you'll mess things up.
