Top End Rebuild Of Txc 310r (2013)

Hi Guys, well I have been able to get 190+ hours before a top end rebuild. The oil usage has remained constant but I am not going to risk it. I have all the parts and probably more than I need.

I am looking for a reference to doing a top end rebuild for this bike as the workshop manual covers engine removal and complete disassembly which is a bit extreme.

Any advice guys? References to material and/or real world experience gratefully accepted.

It's a pretty straightforward process.

If you are not splitting the cases for a rod replacement and the motor is running good, frankly I'd leave it.
The only thing that might be an issue at 190 hours is the rod and if you are not going to replace it then I'd leave it.

If you kept the oil and airfilter clean and don't race the bike hard then just keep listening for noise in the bottom end and split the cases once you hear the least bit of low end knocking.

I bet if you pull the piston the ring end gap will be within spec anyway. You could change the piston and rings and then hear bottom end noise the next day only to have to do it again.

I'd say change the rod or don't bother.

if you split the cases remember to put the small e-clip back on the shift fork shaft.
It's easy to miss. Get a case splitter and take your time on a clean work bench.
