Repairing a MK80

I recently got a MK80 from a friend and former Tiger, Cody. It wasn't in the best condition, but definitely repairable. Unfortunately I didn't take 'before' pics of the cylinder, but trust me, it was pretty scuffed up. These are cast iron cylinders, so they can be honed pretty easily. If, like us, you have a hone handy... here's ours:
These things are a bit expensive but completely worth it. They allow the Bullies to buy cheap, otherwise seized kits. We then repair them, blast on them, and eventually, seize them ourselves. It's the moped cycle of life.
Next time the pics will be better I swear!!
