i got a blaster ..20 over ..seized piston and a posible leak ...somwere..any takes..we need this bike to run and the stealership wants our soul..cash paid....

 

[blaster99]

[UniRacing]

He is looking for a local builder to do the engine work for him,

The stealership is ripping him off.

 

[powerband]

yes exactly hes lookin to pay no more than 350 ish ..

 

[powerband]

is that unreasonable??

 

[UniRacing]

i paid 220 for piston kit and a guy to bore and hone my cylinder.

 

[Blaster200boy]

uhm , it takes about $200 to do it yourself....very simple task!
EDIT: Plus the Bore and Hone (price varies)

 

[blaster99]

[powerband]

[powerband]

maybe a new thred about local repair...for guys lookin to fix bikes and judge them by ther rep ya know its still byer b ware but guys that went to tech school to learn this that kiant find work ..due to obviouse surcomstances....economy

 

[blaster99]
