RE: 2000 Grizzly 600

in #steemit7 years ago

I tackled that job once on my blaster/two stroke. I also used a Wiseco kit. I made the mistake of Milling down the head while I was in there. This gave it more compression. May not have been a good thing for a 2 stroke. I got it back together and took it down the street. I had that little fucker tacked out for about a mile. All of the sudden, it made a horrible noise. I had to rip it apart again. This time it was bottom-end. I ripped apart the bottom end and had no idea how to put it back together. I am not a mechanic. Thankfully I got it back together. I know now not to keep a 2-stroke tacked out for that long. Especially when you did modifications to the cylinder and head. It didn't even look cast before I put it back together. It was all nice, shiny, and Polished.

Sort:  

Two strokes rely on lube from your fuel so increasing load on the con rod/crank bearings is never a really good idea. Not if you want any sort of longevity out of the unit... lol! But its good for bragging rights.

True. I knew that but it didnt even cross my mind when i was doing it.
