I ordered a new piston jug rings gaskets from ThatsDax on the 6th. They got here today on the 10th perfectly packed. Exellent speed and service. Thanks ThatsDax..
 
I havent ordered a motor yet...from thatsdax....but ive ordered many parts and was always pleased with the speed at wich i recived the items....and being in hawaii...its important that companys know how to ship here....it can easily get stuck on the proverbial slow boat......MAHALO ..Duane
 
Well unfortunately the piston I got the hole for the wrist pin is too big for my wrist pin and upper needle bearing. Which means it's either for a old motor with a bushing or I have to get one from Zoom. Now it's to late to contact them and tomarrow is Sunday. I am way to addicted to this. Been without a motor for almost a week and I am jonesing so bad for my bike. This is just dumb.

PS Just got a return email from Dax this is the only piston they carry so I guess I do have to order one from zoom. Rats, dang, shoot, fooey, blah blah blah.

PPS So I just ordered a new piston from Zoom w/shipping $21.45. (that included a $2 discount coupon) That means I am now a little over $72 into a new top end. I could have bought a complete motor w/shipping from Dax for $104 Somebody -please kick me...

I guess the good news is for those interested. The Dax type D 80's have a larger wrist pin. Which means it will last longer because of the larger bearing surface. At least I learned something. I knew I should have just ordered a motor. gurrrrr
 
Is part of the fun, the learning and is always good to have spare parts. They always come in handy down the road even if they go to a buddy who is stuck with no wheels and needs some odd or end. (Which always seems to happen on week-ends)

Know what you mean about the "MB Jones" Junster. All mine are down and running out of ridding weather.

Hang in there.
 
Thanks Dan, i have the new UPS tracking number my new piston will be here friday. I'm getting bored with cleaning and repainting parts.
