My experience is that they take a long time to wear in and seat properly, during which time much smoke is seen coming from the tail pipe. My preference is against using them. Joe (C) FoT, What is you

They can be great if you install and break them in correctly. This is all bike experience, but it should be proper for wet sleeve engines. You need a really good hone job with the cylinder under norm

If I had just remembered this stuff before I'd have had another ten pages for my book. I used chrome rings in my TR-4 engines and found that lapping them in first saved a lot of breaking time on the

Isn't it amazing how the same problem so often brings people to the same odd conclusions. I didn't use Bon Ami (I didn't know what it was) I used Jeweler's Rouge. Other than that, and your care in cl

I'm restoring a late model TR3A for a friend in Toronto. About 7 years ago he spent $4200 for a shop to redo his engine, then after 300 miles on it, he spun and really clobbered the whole left side -

Get it to run, see if a little time on the engine helps. Rings are probably stuck, and might loosen up. I know that's not the all American thing to do (rip it down and make it perfect) but as a guy w
