    Cool, as long as you understand where I am from on this.  I feel a lot better now.  It really was a good bike, I was really sad to let her go, and I could not bare to use it for a race bike.  So I had to part with it.  I spent loads of time tuning and researching, and LOADS of cash to get it the...

    Boring to 94.5mm, and as for longevity, a sleeve can also be inserted and then bored to 94.5mm.  NSC informed me that HEAT is the reason they fail.  If the bike does not overheat, then it should be fairly reliable.  Ask Cobus about his, his is only bored out.  Yes, my race bike lasted 70 hours...

    There is definitely no crank conversion on this particular bike.  reliability, is a moot point.  94.5mm has been done to other bikes, it works, and if it doesn't last then, that is how that goes.  NSC electroplaters, informed me that they had done more than 20 of the 94.5 mm boring out only...

    I looked for the first time today on Wsieco's US Site, for 92mm, they do make a 92mm Piston for them.  Whehter they come into SA, is another story.  My research was all around the 94.5mm.  Not once was there a mention of a 92mm option.

    Boet, i dunno anymore.  I feel sick to my stomach about this.  I know that forged pistons are narrower at the skirts, but I seriously doubt that it would be 2.5mm narrower.  Engineers will know more about this.

    Hi Guys, I was the original owner of said busted DRZ.  I feel I need to interject here and add my 2 cents.  Roost me and cover me in dirt if you must.  I had that bike for 10000+ k's NO PROBLEMS.  Eventually the big end went south, and fragments damaged the cylinder.  I did all my homework, and...
