TAKE THE MOTOR OUT ! GREASE THE PIVOT AND MOUNT BOLTS ! EVERY TIME !
ours comes out every 15-20 hours !
Avoid the case issues at t the swing arm , a little Anti-Sieze goes a long way !

If you go with a new higher compression piston shouldnt you have the cylinder re honed? And also can you just stick with the pink wire mod?

You really should have the cylinder replated for a better seal
