Had a great chat this morning with the folks at moto
international.

I was dropping off some stuff to get bead blasted and
asked them about my cyls. Well, the reason I have the
aftermarket pistons AND the weird pushrod journals is
that my cyls have been bored and sleeved. The cast
iron is in ok shape, but it looks like the folks that
installed them didn't do the best job. So it looks
like nikasil is in my future.

Couple of questions

1. anybody got an 850 crank around they want to get
rid of or know where I could pick one up?

2. Anybody order recently from italy want to share
info like cost, contact info, etc. Is italy even
the best way to go these days?

thanks!
