How to Repair a Motorcycle Cylinder Scoring?

Cylinder scoring can be repaired using two methods: cylinder boring or cylinder replacement. Regardless of the method chosen, a break-in period of approximately 500 kilometers is required after the repair. During this period, avoid high-speed riding and keep the maximum RPM below 6,500. Below is more detailed information about cylinder scoring repair: 1. Cylinder Boring: If the cylinder scoring is not too severe and there is sufficient wall thickness for machining, cylinder boring is typically chosen. After boring, oversized pistons and piston rings are selected to complete the repair. 2. Cylinder Replacement: If the cylinder scoring is severe and the wall thickness exceeds machining limits, making it impossible to fit suitable pistons and rings, a complete replacement of the cylinder, pistons, and rings is usually the preferred solution. 3. Causes of Cylinder Scoring: Motorcycle cylinder scoring occurs when the cylinder wall, due to insufficient lubrication, experiences abnormal contact with the piston, resulting in a rough surface. When this happens, the motorcycle not only loses power but may also exhibit severe oil burning issues.
