Only problem I ever had with my GT550 was when it needed rings a shop did it and screwed up the timing so about 100 miles later I had a hole in the top of 2 of the pistons. They fixed it and tried to charge me. I gave them $50 with a promise to pay the rest but never gave them another dime. I was a kid so didn't know I didn't even have to give them the $50. My first street legal bike was my DT360.
When I was young and even more stupid I decided my 550 needed new rings. It was actually pretty simply, even for a youngster. The rings were fine. It actually had a clogged jet. It was good practice though. It's good to be fearless.
I used to gap my points on that bike with pull can tab tops. They were everywhere and a better fit than a feeler gauge.
