Yeh i read up on that on here Nick, and TBH i thought that was what had been done. But piston is a lot bigger than the suzuki one they used. Ah well, ill out it back together and see how she goes ?

Haven't got a photo of ports to hand, but assuming they have been tickled just to match port timing as it has a different piston in it. Plus I don't have anything to compare it to ? Have you seen one running a 69mm piston before then with a liner that big? Im under the understanding a standard 125 runs a 54mm and a 200 (156) runs a 64mm. And they run with a head gasket. Where does it look like its been leaking? Its all very dirty at the minute and just how i Picked it up.Hi guys, new on the forum. After a few years of tinkering with twinshocks i have managed to get myself a fantic tx250 project. I am aware these are a 125, and the bike was purchased from a friend in pieces. I have taken some measurments from the engine today and noticed that it seems to have had some real nice work done. The Barrel has had a liner fitted with a copper spacer on the bottom , it is running a 69mm piston with two rings. It also appears to have been fully ported and is running a 25mm Amal carburettor. Using the piston measurments and stroke this should bring the bike out at 196cc. It also doesnt run a headgasket as the liner and head have been machined so it doesnt have to. Pictures attached. Any one know who done these mods as i cant find anything about a tx250 running this size piston online. Thanks in advance
