My dealer (D & D Cycles - Pensacola, FL) has there own BB package. Rather than sleeves, they bore and re-nickel the cylinder heads. When assembled, it's just like stock but 904cc.



And you get super thin cylinder walls as an added bonus. When you pull a stock cylinder you'll notice the walls are already thin, when bored out they'll be about 2mm. Wiseco chose to use iron liners due to the strength of the liners compared to the thinness that was necessary. I'm be interested to see how many of those renickled liners crack. That is similar to BC's big bore kit. Not in my motor! That's why I chose the wiseco kit. Here's a pic of my stock bore:



It's only 3-4mm thick. Bore it over, there ain't much left.

And for you guys that have never done this before....I'm one of you! I've never done this before, but like a wise man told me "who taught the Wright Brothers how to fly?"

If you're not up to the risk and challenge, pay someone big bucks to do it, I enjoy this stuff. I've done plenty with bikes before but this is my first time below the head, I couldn't be happier, except until I get it back together.

It really isn't that difficult.
