Hi guys & girls

Just got me little old 600ss up to Pro-team at Wimbledon to start the "straightening process" and re-convert the 674 to 583cc. The barrels and pistons previously removed and now due for re-fitting are, I'm told..."scrap" as they are quite badly scored.

Not being in a position to simply shell-out for brand-new kit I was just "posting" for advice....or, alternatively, someone out there may have a spare old set at a reasonable price?

Hope all's well out there in "DD prep-land"

I think Nelly at Cornerspeed has some pistons...unsure of cost though mate but worth a call....

BTW Andy, might well be tempted to sell my old ones if I can find them and if Mitch didn't butcher them when he took them off ...

Have you got my mobile number? If not drop me a u2u.

i thought we were going to keep the 750 conversion quite? didn't make any difference to your results anyway....:lol:

Can't remember what the wear was like on your stock barrels, be worth a look though.

Right guys...another week-or-so and I'm no further on! I have collected the 583 barrels and pistons and one of them, the front one I believe, is, indeed quite badly scored. I have heard that some people say you can re-bore and/or re-nikkasil plate them, but that's as far as I've got. In any case, I would need to order a new piston which the newly re-plated barrel would then be re-matched to.

C'mon guys, throw me a lifeline!

Have you called Rich @ Louigi Moto? I'm not sure what he has, but he's helpful.
