    Took the bike out last weekend and it felt low on compression. Pulled the cylinder to find I need a new ring........and the thing has 3 cracks in it. 2 in the water jacket and 1 between the ports.

    Ive got a race in 2 weeks and I cant find a replacement :-(

    A good company like Millenium Technologies can repair cracked bridges. They will strip the cylinder, weld the bridges, bore it, re-coat it, and finish hone it. mt-llc.com

    They also have core exchange programs for some models, may have a cylinder on the shelf for you. Call them.

    Husky Sport do a exchange setup, I think from memory £280 with piston, give Mike or Reece a ring.

    Your post says 125 not 144 The 144 kit is over £700 and to think they give them away if you live in the USA :confused:
