    The suspect VINs are (apparrently) ;
    KM4MP51A??1100000 and KM4MP51A??1103538 650 GT S
    KM4MP51B??1100000 and KM4MP51B??1100863 650 GT R

    I'm no expert but that gudgeon looks a bit worn. You might want to get it seen to before something gets damaged.

    apart from that... holy crap!!!!!

    It's a bit of a rough casting the top of that head. That can't have helped with valve clearance.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    No way, that took a firm tap with the mallet to slide the gudgeon out. I'll reuse that part!

    Don't be so stupid!

    Superglue? NOT!!
    But some JB Weld should do it - it's holding my crankcase cover together, the glovebox lid on the Fart on, and the handle on the toaster lever thingo.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....
