Before you strip the power valve out I've had a thought(oohh the pain)!!
You keep saying you have only riden it for 30 mins. Does that means the guy you bought it off or his mechanic has screwwed up the installation of the power valve and assembly.
Maybe you could call him up and say you'd only ridden it for 10mins and it shit itself. You have pics to support this and it is not a failure caused by you. If he is willing to pay for a new piston kit you are willing to do the rest. If he does this you won't take it any further!!!
As I see it unless you signed to say you bought it "as is where is" he is the one that screwed up the engine
On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!
'Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out! Shouting, ' Holy sh!t... What a Ride!! '
