[QUOTE="justalonewolf007, post: 1414899, member: 77294"] It only took the removal of the swingarm pivot bolt...and most of the skin off the knuckle of my right thumb. Did it myself, with head intact. In the process, I smashed/pinched one knuckle between the engine and the frame so badly that I couldn't even yank it out despite all the pain and surprise.

Also, notice the sweet tie-down-strap-lift system I installed on my handlebars. Those go up to an eye bolt that goes through a beam in the ceiling of my garage. Handiest thing ever! We pulled the head off tonight too. The cylinder has some rub marks, but through them, the cross hatching is still showing up. BUT :bang: The piston and rings are stupidly loose. Meaning, WAY out of spec :whoa: My cylinder is marked "A" and the piston seems to be size "B" which is a crapload smaller according to the manual. Tomorrow night, the dad is bringing home a sweet inner diameter measuring tool, so we'll know what is going on for sure. [/QUOTE]
