    On my XP900 when it was using a lot of oil it was the valve guides . With that said on the 800 if your going to the head it is easy to change the rings at the same time.

    Yep for certain i am forced to finally tear it apart, used over a quart for our 103 mile shasta to trinity ride

    She has gone seven easy years with-out a lick of trouble, so that ain't to shabby

    I am thinking of instead of going up like most do, may sell her or part her out, than get a 1000xp

    Naaaa been really thinking of 570 Ace instead

    Don't really know what am going to do at this moment

    I decided not to cheap-out, but I am doing all the work my-self, so guess I am cheapening-out

    Ordered new jug, pistons, seals, rings, gaskets, from cheapcycleparts for 700 buxs

    prolly get in done in June, parts will be here next week

    Shit they want 2000 to 3000 buxs if they rebuild it, sounds like easy money to me

    Will take pics and let you all know

    How long it will take an old, ugly, fat, slow guy to do-it!
