Need a piston in good condition for 600cc ss motor, and matching pin possibly. I hear pre-'98 forged pistons were replaced with cast on later...
Cheers. Well this piston is in very bad shape. I wonder how it began on (only) this cylinder. Never seen anything like it. Have to find a...
On further inspection with horizontal Head and barell removed: Piston sloppy on Gudgeon pin. Conrod to pin clearance good. Piston to pin...
New exhaust opening rocker fitted improved things: side clearance closed down to 0.06mm (which compares with 0.03mm on a good inlet opener) -...
OK Ta AL. The 2001 750 ss parts manual shows just two shims, one either side of the clip, my bike has three - one each side of the rocker and one...
Update - found something tangible: Confirmed distinct sideways play on horizontal exhaust opener rocker and shaft after (moved toward rider...

I strongly suspected a gudgeon pin, partly due to the sound and partly due to the observation off amplified sound at idle, when leaning. Now, I'm...
PS. IN between attacking this problem, I love riding the bike. I recently rebuilt the carbs with consideration for matched size main jets, new...
I tried a screwdriver, not a stethoscope: would you recommend one? I always found a screwdriver satisfactory before, but maybe a steth would help...
Yes, I just dropped the clean oil I had put in just 30 miles ago. No excess metal in there. I do have a strainer to get out (with a heat gun and...
Having removed the alternator cover, I found the alternator nut good and tight. No play of the flywheel assembly on the shaft. The nut was so...
