[QUOTE="robwbright, post: 1389631, member: 60515"] The head and cylinder are off the bike. Prior owner put in a hot rods crank. Valves look very good (according to a guy that's totally rebuilt several 450 ATVs). However, prior owner of my bike reused the head gasket - thus, it would appear I have discovered the cause of the coolant leak into the cylinder. The cylinder has a very small amount of scarring on the front and back - one mark can barely be felt by a fingernail and the rest is about as visible as honing marks. The piston has similar markings. Rings look alright, but haven't checked them to spec yet. Assuming they're alright . . . and assuming the head is not warped and the cylinder is within measurement specs, I was thinking of new gaskets, honing the cylinder and putting it all back together. Think it will be alright? [/QUOTE]
