cylinder ?
is there any markings on the cylinder that tell you if its a 220 or 200.the story with my 01 kdx was that it was a 200 converted to the 220.right now im in the process of doing the top end as the head gasket spung a leak.waiting for manual to show up also.theres markings on the cylinder that say 0.198 an im thinking this is the 200 cylinder.
thanks

the best thing to do is get the head off and see what the piston size is. it could be bored, so a standard piston wont work.

ok thanks guys
i got the jug off last night.
bore measures out to 69mm
piston looks to be 68mm
these are close but might be a smig off.
measured with a metric ruler with a slide on it .
dont have a caliper to measure with.
so what does this mean.am i at my bore limit as far as if my jug gets fubar or can it be taken out again.
since its a overbore is this a good thing or a bad thing.
thanks
Kawie
another question
since its an overbore does it use a different head gasket an should the head been modified also.
thanks

That's odd. I think EG's kit is a 225? Your measurments have to be off somewhere. 1mm clearance is WAYYYY too much! We're looking for like .07 - .1mm, tops. If it's a big bore, I assume it has a sleeve in it. Do you know? The 225 kit obviously wouldn't use a stock 220 piston. You probably need to contact Forward Motion and see if you can find out for sure that you have his kit, and figure out what piston you need.

my bike had a wiseco piston in it.the dealer took the numbers from the top of the piston.he said its the same piston as the 220.the bore was measured by the dealer at 68. something something.my numbers were a close guess not a perfect measure as it was a metric ruler.
no sleeve just a bore an plate job.
the dealer matched the piston by the numbers on it.
