    Question How much piston clearence should i leave when boring my cylinder?

    This is for a nonhonda... A suzuki LT250R, but hey im an insane honda fan, just got this cause it was cheap and i need the extra dough to spend on my car... Anyway i need to bore or hoan the cylinder and most shops charge to much, my dad has hoaned many engines before, but mainly like lawn mower, weed wacker, and car engine, just that stuff... If i had him do the work for me it would be done instantly and i could go riding this weekend so thats why im tempted but if i did have him do it he wants to know how much piston clearance he should leave... I would be using a wiseco piston and its a 87 LT250...

    If it is, it should come with a paper telling him what to do.
