Nice. Did you ever re-ring or changed piston?

I am wondering the same thing and how does that sled look. Good job on the high mileage.

Did you have your drill hooked up to the speed-o cable again 
Nice job don't see that on other makes often if at all.
Have you had to do much as far as rebuilds are concerned?

Sorry for the slow reply, I will get some pics soon and yes I swapped out the original 750 for an 800 about 13-14,000 miles ago.

Yes I freshen up the top end every 5-6000 miles or so.

nice job...
My buddy just rolled up 30260km on his 97 700 Mountain max . He's had it since new and has NEVER been into anything engine related.There's a few people here with Vipers, Srx's and SX-R's pushing between 15,20,000 km without touching them either. I'm a believer that these truely are bulletproof.
