OK, So, I finally did a top end job on my KDX, probably never been done, replaced piston and all that, got it back together, cranked it up, felt the kick back on the kick starter from good compresion and was like oh yeah baby! Took it for a lap around the hood, about 3/4 mile later, lost all compression!
Took it back apart, circlip came off :yikes: Tore up my new piston and rings and put deep grooves in cylinder walls :pissed: What ended up being a job to save $150 bucks is costing me $300 -$500 :bang: Any ideas?
Any body got a descent used cylinder laying around? I guess I am looking at resleeving, I need to call Fredette Tuesday morning and see what he recommends.
Oh yeah, has this EVER happened to anyone else, cause I am beating myself up BIG time over this!
Thanks for any support!
