I used to have an aftermarket bike shop till I sold it in 2013. this was a bike we had worked on for a customer, he ended up in prison and we were stuck with the bike.. called his wife to see what she wanted to do and she politely said she didn't give a damn what we did with it that if we expected her to pay the bill that we could kiss her ass cause he left her with enough . needless to say we were stuck with it.. bike was ruff with rust broken this broken that but it ran like a champ, that's what he wanted was get it running he fix the rest. so instead of fixing it up to sell I did the abandoned title to take legal possession of it and it became our engine donor... that was 10 years ago and it still runs like a champ bout every 6 months or so got to clean carbs from this ethanol crap building up cause we don't drive it enough.. decided to get it out clean up and rebuild the bed and make couple rat rod shows coming up here pretty soon...
Ever hear of aspen fuel? Will eliminate all your carb issues. Shelf life of five years And if it does dry up leaves nothing behind to plug up jets.

My machinist said Pistons were tapered down at squish band no head mod needed. is it possible that using the thin cometic base gaskets caused this as oem are quite thick.

Owned quad for about ten years now and it had a very hard life before me. Last fall went through crank and bored out cylinders to run 66mm wossner Pistons. Used proper engine gaskets for large bore. Stock timing, head, carbs. Pc pipes and midrange porting. Rode about 6 tanks and seized mag side crank bearing. Bearing piled up so hard it pushed crank apart. Upon closer look my Pistons are hitting stock factory head right at edge of squish band. I'd like any suggestions on how to properly modify a replacement head and approximately what it would cost. Thanks.

Older 580 xlt had 34mm carbs maybe those are the ones your bud was referring to?

What does a failed bearing have to do with air leak? Pressure test won't prevent mechanical failure.

Bet there is 500 plus hours on mine. I'll post pics when I tear into it. Always use honda HP trans oil, clutch plates last a long time, oil stays very clean too.
