Hi All,
I have a Honda Cl200 with low compression (110 Left and 120 Right) and after messing with it for a month I finally decided to bite the bullet and pull the engine apart. Well as I was afraid of, there was a considerable amount of vertical scoring in the cylinder walls and on the pistons themselves. So...I've decided to try and find a shop to bore out my cylinders.
I found a few kits that have over-sized pistons and rings that say they are .5mm over-sized or 56mm instead of the factory 55.5mm. Which brings me to my question. What specs should I be requesting from the shop doing the boring? Should I ask for 56mm or does it need to be something different?
This is my first complete rebuild, so any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks
