Yea I am pretty set on those parts so far. Let me know if you run across anything else. How far was it bored? Mines .40 over with a Vito’s port and polish. They can go pretty far before loosing compression, especially if you recently had the top end done. ---

yea, I have to pull my lower end out, somethings not sitting right in there still. They make it a lot easier by splitting the cases horizontally rather then vertically. Did you happen to reset the carbs after the rebuild? Just wondering since it didn’t want to idle from the start. ---

It used to idle fine before the kid blew it up. I didnt touch the carbs, should they be jetted again since its a bigger bore? ---

Did you find out if the rings are supposed to be doubled up on the piston and not 1 on top and 1 on bottom like you had it before? ---

The rings don’t get doubled. Theres two rings per piston, and they don’t get gapped. There already made to fit the specific cylinder size. Not to mention there notched to fit around the positioning pin on the piston anyways. I would try adjusting the carbs a bit. You really shouldn’t need to rejet them, unless they were never jetted for the pipes. You may just have to riching them up a bit more. ---

The stock piston had the 2 rings on the top and nothing on the bottom notch. Brian has it 1 ring on the top notch and 1 on the bottom. ---

Then someone fucked up the first rebuild. That’s why theres two slots for the two rings. Full ground up rebuild here, [http://www.dunereview.com/rebuild-3.htm](http://www.dunereview.com/rebuild-3.htm) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/2001-yamaha-banshee/252758.md?page=2)
