[QUOTE="MikeS, post: 656898, member: 18813"] How did the cylinder look when honed ? Was there spots that the hone did not hit. If the cylinder was egg shaped at some point the new rings are not going to seal well. That happened to us on our RM. When I changed the piston and ring the compression and overall perforamnce got worse. After a few hours it improved some. I ended up having Eric replate it. Do the oil trick as mentioned. If the compression increases then pul it apart. Also check that gasket thickness are the same. a thicker base gasket will lower copression. Goodluck [/QUOTE]
