[QUOTE="laramik, post: 1393326, member: 119891"] I'm feeling you on the pig to start thing too. What's your compression when cold? I just got this bike and someone had just put in a new piston but skipped out on spending the extra 13 bucks for a gasket set and figured rtv silicone woulkd work just as well. Lemmie tell you, it didn't. So after cleaning all of it out of my cylinder head and original gasket I noticed that there was some serious gapping between the top of the cylinder and the head like someone must have used a screwdriver to seperate them. The new gasket on mine is not really filling that gap so filled it just on the outer lip with high taemp caulk but that only is over about 1cm of the actual outer surface. Its holds compression once ran for a minute at like 95 but once cold its at like 65. I basically got this thing for free because I got it along with a 97cr125r for 450. The cr needs a piston which is on order but after that I shouldn't have a problem dumping for at least a grand, but if I'm just on a losing battle with this thing ill just sell it for parts or to someone local for 200 bucks and use that towards a little 4 stroker for the kids.
