Not really. I'm going to admit at this point that I'm way beyond my depth when it comes to a problem that is likely to be this severe. I do all my own routine maintenance, but the last time I tore a motorcycle engine down was about 40 years ago, and it was a 2 stroke. I'll just confess that if it were mine, I would take it to "the man", and if the bill was going to be too high, I'd look for a replacement engine. If that didn't work, I'd buy a new bike. As I said, I'm out of my depth here.
