Thanks a lot Alan, will check it all out.

unfortunately my 1986 has a different bore size it turns out (just under 86mm). i couldn't get compression over 50psi but it is difficult kicking it with nothing to bolt it to.

has anyone got the bore and piston wear limts for an 86 please? i won't need all the other dimensions and i guess the compression will be same. it looks like a new piston kit but i want to check the bore size for std or oversize piston requirement. cheers
