Re: Used piston

I can get that and put the plug in its place then fill in the hole I drilled. I can also use the JB KWIK WELD.

Re: Used piston

Finally got'er running today!!!! Woooohoooo!!!! It felt so good feeling and hearing that baby rumble!! I installed a new pilot jet needle, washer, o ring and spring. I got the hole I wasn't suppose to make filled with JB-Weld! Started up on the first crank :grin: I rode her around the neighborhood and it felt like freedom! Just gotta finish putting the exhaust on, little adjustment on the carb replace the little window on the master cylinder, bleed brakes, clean and polish oh and did I mention I'm SUPER EXCITED!!!!! I want to thank everyone who had a hand in the advice, tips, and encouragement I received from this beautiful forum full of awesome peeps! God Bless!

Re: Used piston

I finish bleeding the brakes and notice that the brake pads are down to metal :/ o well. One more new thing for the bike. I wonder if I can get the rotor cut? Anybody know?

Re: Used piston

You mean like machined? I don't see why not. You'll just need to check the service manual for the minimum thickness and make sure your machinist doesn't exceed that.
