[QUOTE="motometal, post: 165760, member: 24727"] I don't think the flaking/peeling thing is a matter of maintenance. It is related to the plating job itself. Just ask the hundreds of KX owners out there that are wondering why the piston on their brand new $5000 bike is already scored up. I had an overbore job done a few years back on a 250, which turned into a huge fiasco due to a poor plating job (and otherwise terrible service) done by a very popular vendor (not naming names, but it starts with "U.S."). I have been told that they have improved their service since then. Maybe, maybe not...in any case they lost any hopes of future business from me. I still agree that plating is overall the best, but feel the readers of this thread need to see all sides of the issue. [/QUOTE]
