bought another 220 broken piston

Post by canamfan »

Like it says I bought another 220 tonite 2001 model. Nice young guy had it for a couple of years, he thought he had done something wrong. Been using fresh premix keeping the filter clean and the piston skirt broke off right along the transfer port. He didn't want to mess with it so I bought it. looking it over I might have got lucky, cylinder looks good , will have to check out the crank. i asked the seller if he had ever been on kdx rider and he said no, i told him it was pretty common. i myself am guilty as i don't know if the 99 220, I bought has the original piston or not. Guess I better check, the carnage is not pretty.
