    well not today but Sunday, I seized mine B) (trumps). Then dropped the black metallic paint looking oil :pinch: , tore it apart taking off the cylinder, cried, had to tool out the piston pin from what was left of the piston :huh: , cried, took apart the bottom end and removed parts of the piston skirt, cried, removed the oil pump which looked like it had been sandblasted :blink: , swore then cried, took off the idle gear and the back end of the counter balancer shaft came with…. cried.

    So out of anger, like in the movies when some bastard gets carried away and keeps punching someone long after they lose consciousness, I stripped the rest of her down to nuts and bolts, flushed out the frame, dropped it off to get get de-dented (previous owner) and painted, dropped the barrel off at Pro Bore in Pt. Mac. And to make myself feel better did a bit of retail therapy, bought a new oil pump, new kick start assembly counter balancer shaft, 86mm forged piston kit, complete gasket kit with oil seals. So now im broke but happy knowing all my goodies are in the post and with any luck just about all back together in 2-3 weeks.
    And thats what I did to/ with my bike not today but yesterday. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    For someone to be on his or her own 2 legs after a spill like he had and then to get back on the bike is nothing short of amazing :blink: :blink: .
    All the best to him for everything to come B)

    Yep the Top is the same as the 400 and the 650 L it seems.
    Who’d have thunk the 650R and 650L would use different parts like those :huh:

    Thanks mate, I looked on http://www.motosport.com and filled in the details for a 00 XR600 and a 04+ 650 ( I think :huh: ) and in the fiche the part number given was the same could be a data error :pinch: .

    I’ll be in port at the end of the week to get my new sprockets and chain :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: from Rock, so if you find one and it suits you i’ll drop in.
