the barrel has small scores but you can feel em with a fingernail so i think its bye bye barrel.
the front pot appears perfect as does the piston and rings
do you have a barrel and piston and do you think I should replace the all the rings anyway please let me know what you think
Regards Brian

Brian I'll dig out the spares box at the weekend and see what I have, once I've finished rebuilding my TL1000 engine

It would be safer using my 998 or my 996 Neil, I'm just trying to get the TL1000S to a state where I can move it on.

Bit of a set back today as I tried fitting parts from the old engine to the replacement one only to find I can't turn the crank on the replacement motor and there are broken gears and selector forks in it :(

Oh well have to try and sell it as it it Spares or Repair
