    Stripped down the top end on my spare KMX200 engine from the barn. I had no
    idea what state this was in, as it was bought as a non-runner/spares lump.
    Head is of a later design. Very different from the original early one and
    also mint. The piston is a nearly new genuine Kawasaki part with almost nil
    trace of any wear apart from some _very_ slight scores..
    Best of all is the barrel. Some kind/wealthy previous owner has had a
    luverly chrome-moly sleeve pressed into the barrel. No more nikasil woes for
    me. Yuss!
    So for the price of a top end gasket set and a pair of circlips, we should
    be back on the trail at the weekend.
    Happy Bunny.

    Possibly....next.....month.................maybe.
    I reckon you're right. It _is_ a stroker. It _will_ happen again. Hopefully
    not for a while though.
