Warped Piston. Replating Cylinder???

[Littleston101]

Today I was out at Area 330 MX in Carrollton Ohio. I had been having issues all weekend getting my bike lined up ready to race. But that's beside the point. SOMEHOW :bang: (bangs head) My radiator overflow hose became pinched. Causing all of the coolant (there wasnt much to start with) to pour out. About 2 laps into my 1st moto my top end was gone. My bike was smoking terribly and kept stalling. I pushed my bike back to the pits to discover that there was no coolant left. I tore a part my cylinder. The piston is warped and the connecting rod bearing is seized. It was a wiseco piston. The cylinder is already bored 20 over to a 144. So i need a piston, ring, the wrist pin, clips, and the bearing. But my cylinder has small scratching marks and just a tad of damage to it. I thought about getting a whole new stock piston and cylinder but that would run me $500. (unless someone could tell me where i can get a 2003 Honda CR125R Cylinder A for less than $300)


My questions is:



Can I just resurface the inner wall of the cylinder? Is it called re-boring, sleeving, plating, facing??? The damage is minimal. I would like to save some money. Thanks

Having it bored then re-plated is what you're looking for.

US Chrome has done good work for me in the past.

We like Millennium now, or just send it to Forward Motion. Send him the head and old piston also. Vintage Bob

True, I've heard nothing but good things about Millennium and their prices are better than US Chrome.
