you should do a leakdown test after assembly so that you can make sure your motor has no airleaks that will cause a lean condition and make you rebuild it again. Other than that.....take your time and don't rush...and wear latex gloves...makes life easier. also depeneding on the piston you purchased....check the ring grooves around the piston. Some pistons have a tab in the ring-lands that require you to line up the rings with them.....or else they will totally ruin your day when you can't get it to start and need to bore it AGAIN. Other than that....its not hard....coat the wrist pins with a little 2stroke oil to ease the install.

 

Some say to let it run through 2-3 heat cycles.....others say 5 hrs of easy break -in. But most of the hardcore wild riders here will just easy ride it for about 2 hours or 1 full tank of fuel......then drop the hammer....

 

Let us know if you need any help or if you get stuck anywhere! and let us know how its going.
