    Ah, yes, my mistake. I was looking at my 5KE manual. I didn't check the reverse cylinder manual. I am pretty sure it is the same for the U and W. From VHM's website, it looks as though they spec...

    I hate to say it but that looks kind of like a four corner seizure pattern. It has some large scoring at 4 corners. It also has some scoring all around. Seems like a large seizure mark at the ring...

    I do agree that the VHM forged pistons should be harder than the stock cast Yamaha pistons.

    Do you have pictures of the rest of the damaged VHM piston and matching damaged cylinder? Is there...

    That nut also is on FZR1000s, YZF750s, and GTS1000s. Look on ebay for hardware lots and engine mount lots for those bikes. There appears to be a bunch of those special nuts in the pictures. Here...

    They are 3LC cylinders. So, yes, they are from a 1989 TZ250W. They are interchangeable with the 1988 3AK TZ250U. However, I am sure there are porting differences between the two.

    I have had...

    Sounds like a case issue to me. I doubt too tight of clearance would cause that issue. The 5KE cases are known to go bad. You may need to check that all the bearing bores in the case share the...

    Yeah, also make sure the caps are properly attached to the plug wires. Give them a little tug. I usually remove them, cut the wire back a bit to get to fresh wire, and reattach the cap. This is...

    Negative on the sealer. Yamaha knows best. As long as the mating surfaces of the cylinder and head are in good shape, the o-rings are all you need.

    Wow, that is pretty impressive.

    Did you check the crank for true? There is always a possibility that it wasn't correctly trued from the factory. Also, it could be a defective bearing.

    That is a 6004 bearing. You should be able to get it at any bearing supplier or industrial supply company. Go with the C3 grade bearing.

    You are in Germany, get the FAG bearing.
