Any tips on how to seperate the cylindr block from the crankcase? I want to change the rings and fit a new base gasket but it wont budge!

Hi All Can anyone tell me what size of pistons I have, they are marked 3H5 on the crown. No other idents, I thought it should have been marked STD or + something. The bike is an 1100 US Import of 1980 Vintage. Thanks Johnny

Cheers Mate, noticed the Fireblade part, mines an RRY!, big difference from the 1100!

Hi Cy Thanks for the prompt reply, she has done 90K and the bores are in great condition but I would like to replace the pistons and rings. The valve seats look to need re-ground as there is not much left on the lip so I was just going to replace the valves, but I guess if they prove expensive I guess it's clean and lap them in. Thanks Johnny
