[QUOTE="hd50el, post: 1159462, member: 75384"] Well, I pulled the engine out, and tore it down. I found that the piston was not seized, but the big end of the rod was locked solid, so I guess I'm going to have to find another rod. A friend of mine is in the motorcycle salvage business, and he happened to have a bunch of NOS Maico pistons that he bought 25 years ago, so I got lucky to find one that is the next oversize complete with ring, pin, and clips. So now my parts list for the engine rebuild looks like this: Rod assy Kicker shaft Gasket set Seal kit Clutch push rod Clutch hub spring and bolt Water pump bearing Crankshaft clutch drive gear nut The clutch push rod, and the clutch hub bolt and spring were missing because someone had the clutch apart at some time. I guess that whoever had it before thought that the engine locked up due to a problem with the clutch. So now I'm going to start gathering all of my parts up so I can get the engine rebuilt. It will take a little longer to rebuild this bike, but that's ok, as I have six other bikes I can work on while I'm getting everything together. That's all for now. Thanks guys, John [/QUOTE]
