With all the trouble I hear about the steel liners, I have to try it. I've been down every other road. My plan is to pin it, then clean it, then install it, then beat the living crap out of it. I have a bike with over 4k miles with a chrome liner. It has been beat to hell, and then made a return visit 20 more times. Still runs like a champ, no signs of slowing down or any worn bearings and the chrome liner still looks great. Just wanna see if I can get 10000 miles out of a china doll with a steel sleeve. Getting close to 5k with chrome, original rings, and wider gudgeon bearing installed from get go. Y'all think it will happen? Stay tuned, just ordered the jug today. From CDH on the bay, $55 bucks for piston, jug, gaskets and clips, 49mm.
