I posted this a week or so ago and accidently deleted it. I plan to do my own top end rebuild on my 2001 400ex for the first time and am looking to pull some info from some knowledgable volunteers.
I plan to use an OEM piston as I am told that they are the most durable...........Is this the best way to go? Or would a JE be better? If I use a JE, is a higher compression piston like a 10.5 or 11:1 a drop in, or does something else need to be done to the motor?
I got a torque wrench and aHonda service manual ready to go and will be dipping into this in a couple of weeks.
Any volunteers for info?:cool:
