[QUOTE="rda, post: 100130, member: 18927"] i used to have a can am 500, not sure what year, it had a mono shoch and drum brakes. one time the piston skirt broke, i checked around and a new one was going to cost $300. i took it to a machinist and he squared the edges on it and welded the cracks. now it was missing about a 1/2 inch on the intake side, which changed the porting making it even faster!! the bike was still running good, but in those days my maintenance techniques were poor and the neglected rear wheel bearings shattered and destroyed the hub. at that point i gave up on her and sold the bike to the dealer i had been getting parts from. he said he was going to sell the engine to a guy to use in an ultralight. that bike was a death trap, all that power, and the brakes wouldn't even lock the rear wheel.
