Lithium Battery?
(Preview)

Is it time for a rebore? (tolerances)
(Preview)
I measured my barrel with a bore gauge. It's out of round by about 0.003 (3 thou) Google says it's time for a rebore, would everyone here agree? Would .5mm be enough? Would anyone like to recommend a machine shop, either that I can post to, or that's in the Didcot (S.Oxon.) area? Thanks in advance. Jon....

Possible air leak

I have a 2002 TTR250, starts up fine but when I give it throttle and the rpms settle down, it does this weird vibration/rattling like it has an air leak and the rpms kinda go up a little. Anyone experienced this before? Here is a link to a video I took. https://share.icloud.com/photos/03dsY_k6vXv6i-...
