Daily my MB gets rode a minimum of 8 miles so as the days climb so do the miles and the adventures in MB here is a few pics of what to expect for 60 miles on a half a gallon of fuel, this lasted me over 2000 miles and was swapping a cylinder cause an exhaust stud hole became unusable. look what I found yet never new it had an issue, rode it 80 miles last night a lil noisy only one bolt holing the pipe on.

Pretty fun to ride in Miami during rush hour. I get to rush everyone else gets to wait. Just finished putting on a new/old cylinder with smaller ports a spare I had, a new modded piston I did awhile back, going to try it out later today, had a better cylinder port wise but a wrist pin killed it. the groove in the piston looks funky the other side a nice clip was seated in just like I did it awhile back just this other side dunno what happened there, I did verify with inspection glass both clips were fully seated in. dang thing wound its way out somehow.

Sometimes no matter what you do or how careful you are things come apart, could have been a clip that wasn't tempered correctly.
