Damage report!

I got it all apart today and to my surprise only ONE of the rings was broken, into five pieces. For those of you curious, it is possible to take the head apart without removing the engine, but just barely.

Unfortunately, the cylinder is pretty scored from the broken ring bits jabbering around during my ride home, and a new cylinder is $300! Doh! Anyone know where I can pick up a cheaper used cylinder?

I took photos too, and will post them.
