Hi guys hope you are well and happy new year!!...im sort of opening this thread back up. Ive not had any time to play with the k5 that's why ive been quiet but in the last two weeks ive got the bottom end out,started to strip it and have also bought the tools to measure the bore properly etc.
Good news on the cylinder is that the liner measures up to new spec so it will just need a nice hone and a standard slug putting in there.
What piston would you recommend between proX ,wossner or wiseco? Ive read about the forged pistons need a good warm up before use which is how I roll anyway!
Im refreshing the crank and whatever else I find on the bottom. Best recommendation on a conrod would be cool as well.
As im in the UK im struggling to find parts at the right price. Ive bought a rad valve for it to get rid of the crazed inlet boot which was a great price from the US inc all charges
