Re: [suzuki250fours] Re: Engine Rebuild Gaskets and rings

Hey mark,

the local suzuki dealer (newcastle) had all but the cylinder gasket which took
a week or so from japan. Had tried sourcing from japan and after market but had
no luck. The rings are really expensive, around $100 each piston while the head
gasket wasn't too bad from memory. The kit costing just under $500. Other things
to consider is the wear on the cylinders (do you need to upsize pistons) and the
condition of the valves ie do they need to be replaced. I didn't touch the
bottom end.... famous last words.

Good luck
Luke

Hey frogs, just wondering if you were able to get your gasket set? did
you get new rings and bearing too! If you were able to source them,
where did you get them from, how much and do you know if they are the
same as a GS250FW. I am thinking about a full rebuild for my bike.
Thanks, Mark

The engine is rebuild is slowly taking place. Word of advice is to shop around. I had a quote for rings @ $92per cylinder! A bit steep I thought, so after some...
