I'm given to believe that the M600's 2003 change to 620 cc brought it to the same stroke = 81.5mm (and crank?). I could consider a monster 620...
Yes, different stroke.
OK cheers Hajira, that's useful to know.
I have one more question, in order to plan rebuild: what generally was the scheme for balancing cranks/pistons etc on rollout of production SS's...
someone must know that someone who knows...
I can get hold of M600 pistons and barrels - are the barrels a straight swap for SS...?
smaller 2 strokes with small end noise are not as serious, it seems. Partly due to lubricartion in fuel, and also to the forces involved... We ran...
Right, agreed - its a convention; con rod bushes etc are made to be sacrificed, and following that, gudgeon pins to piston bosses. I have always...

This isn't what I understand as 'piston slap' which I always understood as meaning a slapping skirt. I think the noise is from a piston rattling...

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...

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...
its not got 'throbbing member' status (I see you have), just to throw light on your question!
Sod the 'hard work' idea, I can feel your delight and joy - that's it, that's what it is. Of course, mum will find feeding more tiring, being...
