[QUOTE="_JOE_, post: 1211936, member: 77507"] This taken from Forward Motion...........Getting What You Pay For? The old saying "you get what you pay for" implies that the more you spend the more you get. Not so in the motorcycle industry. Often times the people with the least experience charge the most money. Here's an example; Max Power and PR2 have been doing big bores for 1/3 the time of Eric Gorr and charge as much as 3 times more! We can rebuild your entire engine for the less than the price that most of our competitors charge for a 144 cylinder alone! On the flip side of the cost equation is Kustom Kraft and Millenium. Their prices are 50 bucks lower than Eric's but they don't include porting. The proper porting is the key to getting more power from a big bore kit, otherwise the engine produces more low end and just goes flat in the mid-range and actually produces less than stock. Catalog Parts Not Custom! Cheap and Easy Everywhere. We build kits using AMA approved Wiseco piston kits, which are available from Forward Motion, Wiseco dealers, Parts Unlimited dealers, or virtually any mail order motorcycle company. These are catalog commodity parts, not high priced frequently back-ordered custom pistons like our competitors use. Also our kits use stock or aftermarket replacement kits on the models that use head o-rings. Models like the Honda CRs and Kawasaki KXs use steel head gaskets and companies like Cometic and Moose Racing make oversized gaskets for the same price as stock. Our competitors use expensive spacer plates so you're stuck buying replacements from them. Warranty? Although no new dirt bike comes with a warranty, US Chrome and Forward Motion have liberal policies regarding top end failures and warranties. However all the damaged parts and sometimes the engine must be submitted for evaluation. USC and FM developed a special program for people with our big bores that had problems beyond the scope of a normal warranty. The "Warranty Special" covers everything from normal wear and tear to dirt scratches from not oiling your filter, piston-seizure from not pre-mixing oil with the fuel, too-lean jetting, crashing, overheating from failed cooling systems, broken studs, cracks, powervalve breakage, and connecting rod failure. The cost is only $125 to repair the bore and you don';t even have to disassemble the powervalves. In fact we insist that you send us the complete top end so we can help you determine the root cause of the engine failure to fix it right the first time and save you money. We also offer free diamond honing ($25 value) of supermini and 144 cylinders for two years after you buy it. US Chrome's NICOM cylinder plating is so tough that in many cases, even when the piston seizes, we can clean it up with just honing! [/QUOTE]
