GWbarm, thanks very much 

Can’t go wrong with the Honda oil, I think 

What’s the minimum compression you would pass on a bike going through your repair shop if everything else is in good shape? I’m talking older engines here

I always use the Honda oil, and I use 5-30 in the winter, I live in Montana where it gets downright crispy so I like the thinner oil in the cold months

I’m getting a new top end today or tomorrow that’s why I’m in a hurry to know😊

So….. can anyone tell me what the torque spec is? 

Hi everyone Merry Christmas! Am a newbie here so I can’t access the service manual till I have 10 posts, how much torque when bolting down the top end on a Bayou 300 4x4? On the 4 long bolts

Thanks for the input Mech

I’ve got more questions just interested in peoples thoughts; when is it good enough to just hone the cylinder and put in new rings and how long does that last?

Another question on this: can I put a different top end on this and use the same head? I mean a 250 or 300cc? Reason I’m asking is the 220 top ends I can find are pricey, even aftermarket whereas like the 300’s are cheap

Hi all, I have a 1994 Bayou 220 with low compression, how do I decide if I need a new top end or just rings?

Those cv axles can be a pain, I’ve seen a couple that were real bears
